Russia’s famous female bodyguard is killed · 2008-01-30 17:12

Anna Loginova, www.www.dailymail.co.ukRussia’s most famous female bodyguard Anna Loginova has been killed after failing to prevent her own Porsche being carjacked.

The glamorous 29-year-old died from head injuries after clinging on to the door handle and being dragged along the street at high speed as the car screeched away.

“She suffered serious injuries and died at the scene,” said a police spokesman.

Police believe that she was killed in a random carjacking and was not the victim of an attack based on her work for wealthy high-profile Russian clients.

Loginova ran an agency for female bodyguards, some trained by the ex-KGB, to give discreet protection to Moscow’s billionaires and their wives and mistresses.

In a recent magazine interview, she insisted that she and her team of bodyguards gave better protection than the more traditional beefy male security men, Daily Mail reports.

“I do think that a girl should be a girl, not a Terminator,” she said. She posed semi-naked for a Moscow men’s magazine to make it clear that she was feminine as well as good with a gun.

She was highly respected for her bodyguard skills. “A normal man gets sick and tired of male bodyguards around him all the time,” she said.

“In addition, many restaurants now do not allow a guard inside. They can come in and check everything but then they are asked to wait in the lobby. In contrast, you can take female bodyguards inside, she will sit down at the table and nobody would guess that she’s a weapon herself – and can react appropriately in any dangerous situation.”
