Russian prosecutors push for 20 year sentence for imprisoned opposition leader Alexei Navalny
Fox News
Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny is facing extremism charges. Prosecutors in Russia are pushing for a 20-year sentence for Navalny.
In his closing statement released Thursday by his team, Navalny bashed Russian authorities as being governed by "bargaining, power, bribery, deception, treachery ... and not law." Navalny said: "Anyone in Russia knows that a person who seeks justice in a court of law is completely vulnerable. The case of that person is hopeless."
Navalny, 47, is President Vladimir Putin's fiercest foe who exposed official corruption and organized major anti-Kremlin protests. He was arrested in January 2021 upon returning to Moscow after recuperating in Germany from nerve agent poisoning that he blamed on the Kremlin.
The authorities sentenced him to 2 1/2 years in prison for parole violations and then to another nine years on charges of fraud and contempt of court.
