Russia has announced that Alexei Navalny, Vladimir Putin’s chief adversary, has passed away in a deplorable Siberian jail.
The 47-year-old Russian opposition leader went missing for 20 days before being found in one of Putin’s most severe prisons in December of last year.
Officials at the prison where Navalny was being detained declared his death today.
The Human Rights Foundation said that Navalny, who has experienced severe health issues while incarcerated, was reportedly placed in solitary confinement once more prior to his purported death.
Putin’s greatest nemesis vanished from view last year while incarcerated in a brutal Russian gulag, and his allies forewarned that he would be put to death.
“We are worried for his life,” stated Maria Pevchikh, the leader of Navalny’s FBK party.
“He’s in the hands of the very same people who tried to kill him before.
“If they once got an authorisation to murder Navalny, do they have another one now or is the last one still valid. Navalny’s life is constantly at a high risk.”
