Russian prison authorities (UFSZIN) have warned Alexei Navalny, who was hospitalized in a German hospital for rookie poisoning on Monday, that his sentence could be changed to a suspended sentence if he did not comply with his request for proof on Tuesday.

The prison authority referred to an article in The Lancet of December 22, according to which Navalny was discharged from the hospital on September 20 and declared recovered on October 12, and “the consequences of the disease have completely disappeared”. UFSZIN draws attention to the fact that suspended convicts are liable if they evade parole, and Navalny and his lawyer have also been notified that the convicted person must inform the competent authorities. If Navalny does not comply with this, UFSZIN may request the court to change the suspended prison sentence to be served.

Interfax wrote about the Irish that Navalny is to report to Moscow Penitentiary on Tuesday at 9:00 local time. However, the news agency notes that the Lancet article does not name Navalny, but only reported an incident with a 44-year-old man on August 20, where he was ill on a plane ten minutes after takeoff.

Alexei Navalny negotiated with opponents in Siberia that day and fell ill on the plane back to Moscow. The plane made an emergency landing in Omsk and the politician was taken to hospital there. Two days later, at the request of his family, he was transferred to Berlin. Navalny was treated for 32 days at the Charité Clinic in Berlin and remained in a coma for 24 days in the intensive care unit. His doctors said on September 23 that his condition had improved enough to continue treatment in outpatient care. According to German doctors, the opposition politician was poisoned with rookie-type neurotoxins. The Kremlin has repeatedly denied that the Russian authorities had anything to do with the poisoning.

Since then, he has called one of the FSB killers under the pseudonym Navalny, who confessed how he was poisoned. Navalny’s lawyer was also recently detained for two days after visiting the home of a suspected Russian secret agent and calling his apartment. Therefore, Ljubov Statue was prosecuted for violating his privacy, which is punishable by two years in prison.

Navalny and his younger brother, Oleg, were convicted in December 2014 of fraud and money laundering in the so-called Yves Rocher case. Alexei was suspended for three and a half years, five years, and his brother, Oleg, was sentenced by the court to the same length but to be served. The brothers are accused of causing 26.8 million rubles in damages to Yves Rocher’s Russian subsidiary and another 4.5 million rubles to another company.

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled unfairly in October 2017 and asked for a review, but the Supreme Court of Russia upheld the court’s ruling and a Moscow court extended the trial period by one year. Another probation, released in 2013 in the so-called Kirovles case, suspended Navalny’s probation in July last year. (Medusa / ITN)
