Sergei Ivanov

Nevskoye Vremya

June 15, 1995, in an unknown place, Russia

Ivanov, a correspondent for St. Petersburg daily Nevskoye Vremya, was last seen by his colleagues on June 16, 1995, when he left for the Oryokhnov Region of Chechnya. Ivanov was going to look for Nevskoye Vremya journalists Maxim Chabalin and Felix Titov, who had not been heard from since February 27, 1995. By year's end, Ivanov's colleagues still had not heard from him, and they fear he may have been killed.

Motive Unconfirmed: CPJ is investigating to determine whether the death was work-related.
