Jailed Russian opposition politician Alexei Navalny has been sentenced to an additional 19 years in prison after being found guilty on a series of new charges, Navalny's supporters said, citing the judge at a court hearing.

Jailed Russian opposition politician Alexei Navalny has had an extra 19 years added to his jail term in a criminal case which he and his supporters said was trumped up to keep him behind bars and out of politics for even longer.

The audio feed from the court was so poor that it was practically impossible to make out what the judge was saying. Dressed in his dark prison uniform and flanked by his lawyers, Navalny smiled at times as he listened to the judge.
