BEIJING, Jan. 30 (Xinhuanet) -- Anna Loginova,
Russia's most famous and glamorous female bodyguard, has been killed in
Moscow while trying to defend her Porsche Cayenne from a hijacker, media
reported.
Loginova, also a former model and the head of a
private security firm, on Sunday tried to fight off the carjacker and clung
to the door handle. She was killed after 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.
Loginova was a famous Russian model before venturing
into the security business and had shot advertising campaigns for BMW, Chanel
and other world-known brands.
She took lessons of Jiu-Jitsu martial art and
mastered the sword handling. Afterwards, she opened her own security firm for
women.
In a recent magazine interview, she insisted that she
and her team of glamorous bodyguards gave better protection than the more
traditional beefy male security men.
"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.
