New trial of Kremlin critic Navalny

class=”sc-3778e872-0 cKDKQr”>

The new trial of Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny will begin on April 26.

According to the Anti-Corruption Fund (FBK), which he founded, a new trial will be opened next week against the imprisoned Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny (46). The court hearing will begin on April 26, FBK director Ivan Zhdanov announced on his Telegram channel on Friday. According to another confidant of Navalny, Leonid Volkov, the charge of extremism is at stake. Accordingly, the opposition risks 35 years in prison. Officially, there is no information about an impending trial.

“It is a political case in which all the work of the FBK since 2011 has been declared extremist and Navalny has been sentenced to 35 years in prison,” Volkov wrote on Twitter on Friday. The extremely long prison sentence is the result of the combination of several criminal offenses for which no life sentence is provided.

Bad health condition

Navalny, who narrowly survived a poison attack in 2020, was arrested at a Moscow airport in early 2021 immediately after returning from Germany, where he was treated and rehabilitated. He was initially charged with violating probation terms from a previous trial. He was later sentenced to another prison term on charges including fraud. According to the previous verdicts, he must go to prison until 2032.

Recently, Navalny’s lawyer Wadim Kobsev reported on the deteriorating health condition of the 46-year-old in solitary confinement. Since last summer, Navalny has been held in solitary confinement thirteen times in the Melekhovo penal camp in the Vladimir region, about 250 kilometers northeast of Moscow. In addition, the prison authorities provoked the Kremlin critic to open a new trial against him. (SDA)
