Alexei Navalny in prison for another 19 years

Imprisoned Russian opposition politician Alexei Navalny was sentenced today to an additional 19 years in prison after being found guilty of a series of new charges, Navalny’s supporters said, citing the judge during the hearing.

“We sentence Navalny to 19 years in prison, which he will serve in a special regime detention center,” the Moscow court judge said in his verdict today.

Navalny’s political movement has been outlawed in Russia and labeled “extremist”.
