A Russian Orthodox priest was stabbed to death yesterday (May 5, 2010) in Chuvashia, less than two weeks after a clergyman was shot dead in the same central Russian republic, the RIA Novosti (Russian) website reports today.
A spokesman for the local investigation committee said the body of a hieromonk of St. Michael the Archangel Church with multiple knife wounds was discovered at his home in the city of Cheboksary.
On April 24, 2010, Father Anatoly, 46, was discovered dead with a gunshot wound in his church in Chuvashia's village of Yantikovo.
In late 2009, two priests were shot dead in Moscow in a matter of weeks.
