Anna Loginova, Celebrity Bodyguard Killed in Carjacking



Anna Loginova, a Russian model who started a bodyguard agency with females, some trained by the ex-KGB, to protect Moscow’s newly rich businessmen has reportedly been killed during a carjacking in the capital, just weeks after describing how she had fought off a similar attack. Loginova who was only 29, died from head injuries when she attempted to stop a young man from stealing her silver Porche Cayenne on Sunday night. She was thrown out of her car by the carjacker, however, Loginova grabbed the door handle and was pulled several meters before she let go and hit her head on the road according to Komsomolskaya Pravda.

Apparently Loginova recently gave an interview to the Russian Maxim magazine in which she described how she stopped another man stealing the Porsche. She said:

“I stepped out of my car and closed the door when I suddenly saw a young man near me. He grabbed me by the arm… By reflex, I used a jujitsu technique. I twisted his arm and hit him on the face with my elbow. The guy obviously was not expecting such a reaction.”

Loginova said that when she grabbed her gun, the man jumped in his car and drove away.

She worked as a model for Chanel and BMW and didn’t mind showing off skin in order to get more exposure for her bodyguard agency. She explained how female bodyguards offered a distinct advantage over men in Moscow:

“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 a female bodyguard inside, she will sit down at the table and nobody would guess that she’s a weapon herself - and can react appropriately in any dangerous situation.”

It’s too bad that she couldn’t save herself. She probably wanted to prove that she could scare off the guy who was stealing her car, but it was just a car and not worth her life. I can’t imagine what she went through when she was killed that way. This could have happened to a male bodyguard too, but the business she was in was really dangerous and who knows who was really behind her death.
