MOSCOW,
November 6. /TASS/. Ekho Moskvy (Echo of Moscow) radio station host Tatyana
Felgengauer has returned to work after suffering a recent knife attack, radio station Editor-in-Chief Alexei Venediktov said on his Twitter
account on Monday.
"Tanya
Felgengauer is in a live broadcast," Venediktov said. "Tanya has
returned!"
The radio
host said in Ekho Moskvy’s live broadcast she felt much better and intended to
fully recover by the New Year.
"Everything
is healing up little by little. I need to show patience because I’ll have a
long rehabilitation period: I underwent a very serious surgery and I had very
serious injuries," she said, adding the rehabilitation period will last a
month or two.
The radio station
host who was discharged from the hospital on November 2 thanked all those who
did not stay indifferent and who supported her.
A man armed
with a knife barged into the Ekho Moskvy radio station on Novy Arbat Street on
October 23 to attack radio host Tatyana Felgengauer and stab her in the neck.
The company’s security staff detained the attacker and turned him over to the
police. Felgengauer was rushed to the hospital.
The
attacker was identified as Boris Grits who has the dual citizenship of Russia
and Israel. Moscow’s Presnensky District Court has ruled to place the assailant
under custody until December 23.
