Markelow was an active member of anarchistic and ecological movement in the 90ties. He became a lawyer and was propably the most controversial of russian lawyers. He defended many people, like anachirsts and victims of war in Czeczenia. He was also a lawyer of Anna Politkowska.
The murder might be connected with the famous case of Juri Budanov. In march 2000 Budanov raped and killed an 18years old czeczenian girl Elza Kungajeva. Markelov was the lawyer of her family. Budanov left the jail 4 days ago.

Zamanbek Nurkadilov, a kazhakstan opposition leader claimed shortly before he was murdered gangland style in late 2005 that Nazarbayev and a corrupt russian oligarch fomented the chechen wars in the early 1990's.
Lev Leviev the London based Russian-Israeli oligarch and prime Chabad-Lubavitch mover is a Nazarbayev buddy and the Honorary Consul of Kazakhstan in Israel, making of him a likely candidate to be the corrupt russian oligarch Nurkadilov alleged was involved in fomenting the Chechen wars shortly before he was murdered IMO.
Besides this claim, Zamanbek Nurkadilov and Altynbek Sarsenbayev, who got murdered shortly afterwards in early 2006, both heavily questioned the legality of the privatisation process of kazahkstan's huge mineral resources, a process which seems to have benefited principally a certain Alexander Mashkevich, the Kazahk-Israeli president of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress, who reportedly owns a whooping 50% of this country's mineral wealth.
Anna Politkovskaya's murder in late 2006, which, like the above two, has not been really solved, seems to be related to Chechenia as well it seems.
