Russian police arrest protesters outside Moscow court where Navalny is being sentenced

Russian authorities deny the charge and claim there is no proof he was poisoned, despite the findings of tests by several European labs.Russia's penitentiary service alleges that Mr Navalny violated the probation conditions of his suspended sentence from a 2014 money-laundering conviction, which he rejected as politically motivated.

It has asked the Simonovsky District Court in Moscow to turn his suspended sentence into one that he must serve in prison.Mr Navalny and his lawyers have argued that while he was recovering in Germany from the poisoning, he could not register with Russian authorities in person as required by the terms of his probation.

The Russian opposition leader also insisted that his due process rights were crudely violated during his arrest and described his jailing as a travesty of justice.Anti-Putin chants at rallies Mr Navalny's jailing has triggered massive protests across Russia over the past two weekends, with tens of thousands taking to the streets to demand his release, chanting anti-Putin slogans., including more than 1,900 in Moscow, the biggest number seen in the nation since Soviet times. Some were beaten.

Most were released after being handed court summons and face fines or jail terms of seven to 15 days. Several people faced criminal charges over alleged violence against police.

Navalny and every criminal money laundering should be in the jail. 22000 cases of Covid-19 every day in Russia and he called his protesters that most of them living in Russia and are not Russian citizens!! He should be changed for endorsing people to violate COVID restrictions!!

ITS VERY SAD BUT PUTIN WILL NEVER LET HIM OUT.ALIVE

One seriously wonders at the publicity given to convicted felon Alexei Navalny? Surely, if human rights groups were serious about truth & justice, why haven't we heard more from them on Julian Assange. After all he is being locked up for telling the world the truth on war crimes!
