Navalny was poisoned in late August and fell ill during a flight in Russia. He was later taken to Germany for treatment. Several foreign laboratories have determined that Navalny was poisoned with the Novitjok neurotoxin, which was developed in the Soviet Union.
During his stay abroad, the opposition politician has remained a nail in the Kremlin’s eye. Among other things, together with various media outlets, he managed to call an agent of the Russian security service FSB who reported on his poisoning.
Russian investigators now say they suspect Navalny spent 356 million donated rubles (just over 39 million crowns) on the purchase of “personal property, tangible assets and to pay for expenses (including holidays abroad).”
“Stolen” donations
Therefore, from a legal perspective, donations should be considered “stolen,” the inquiry commission said in a statement.
Navalny himself wrote on Twitter that the new accusations against him were fabricated and seemed like a hysterical move ordered by President Vladimir Putin.
He also writes that he foresaw that the authorities will try to imprison him when they have now failed to assassinate him.
The Russian authorities, who officially deny any involvement in Navalny’s disease on the plane, have already used a long list of lawsuits against him in the past.
Arrival in Moscow
On Monday, the FSIN federal prison authority demanded that Navalny leave Germany immediately and, no later than Tuesday morning, report to his office in Moscow.
If this does not happen, it can be said that you violated the rules for a parole from a previous prison sentence, according to the authority.
Thus, Navalny, whose suspended sentence expires on Wednesday, is also at risk of being incarcerated again the day he returns to Russia, according to FSIN.
Navalny and most observers say the lawsuits are politically motivated and led by the Kremlin.
