Anna Loginova, Russia's most famous and glamorous female bodyguard, was killed in Moscow on Sunday 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, tried to fight off a carjacker and clung to the door handle. She was killed after being dragged along the street at high speed as the car screeched away.
A witness to the carjacking said a man ran from a Lada car, as Loginova's Porsche came to a stop, pulled her out of the vehicle and jumped in the driving seat. Loginova was still hanging onto the door when the Porsche screeched away.
Anna Loginova was dragged a few meters along the road and only let go when her head hit the tarmac. She was confirmed dead at the scene.
Anna was the manager of an agency that provided female bodyguards to give secretive protection to Moscow’s wealthy celebrities, their wives and mistresses. Some of her body guards were trained by ex-KGB staff.
The stolen vehicle was found later abandoned in southwest Moscow.
The police are continuing their search to trace those involved in the car theft and death of the famous model.
Loginova was a famous Russian model before venturing into the security business. She took lessons Jiu-Jitsu and mastered the sword handling.
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.
Anna had posed half-naked for a magazine in Moscow. She wanted to prove that she was feminine as well as good with gun. She was highly respected for her bodyguard skills.
She said, "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.
