'Navalny was poisoned'
The Journal
|September 18, 2025
THE widow of Alexei Navalny has said that two independent laboratories have found that her husband was poisoned shortly before his death in a Russian prison.
-
Mr Navalny, who crusaded against official corruption and staged massive anti-Kremlin protests as President Vladimir Putin's fiercest foe, died in an Arctic penal colony in February 2024. He was serving a 19-year sentence that he believed to be politically motivated.
Authorities said that the politician became ill after a walk but have otherwise given few details on his death. He was 47.
In a video released yesterday, Yulia Navalnaya said that biological samples from her husband’s body had been taken out of Russia and tested at two laboratories abroad.
