Son of Russian fantasy writer kidnapped, killed
THE GUARDIAN , LONDON
Sunday, May 16, 2004,Page 6

The 13-year-old son of Russia's best-selling fantasy writer has been murdered in a bungled kidnapping allegedly involving some of his school friends.

Ivan Belyanin was abducted on his way home from school in the southern town of Astrakhan on Wednesday.

His body was found the next day after his father, Andrei, had received a ransom demand for US$100,000.

Prosecutors said Friday that an unnamed 13-year-old boy and his 21-year-old brother, identified by the media as Ivan Kostalyev, had been arrested along with another boy.
