The firing of a top law enforcement official in Russia was overturned on the 21 December 2009 in what appears to be part of an inter-factional war between rival Kremlin groups, the first time such a dispute has erupted in public under the presidency of Dmitry Medvedev. The dispute over the firing of Anatoly Bagmet, head of the Moscow investigative branch of the prosecutor-general’s office, threatens the delicate ruling tandem of Mr Medvedev and Vladimir Putin, the powerful prime minister and former president. Behind the scenes the two men appear to support figures from opposing political factions. |
