According to the nation’s jail service, 47-year-old Navalny passed away last week. At the time of his death, he was serving a combined 30 ½-year prison sentence.
We sincerely thank everyone who has been pressing for this alongside us. Lyudmila Ivanovna is currently in Salekhard, according to a translated post on X by Kira Yarmysh, a spokesman for Navalny. “We are uncertain if the government would obstruct the family’s wishes and Alexei’s rightful punishment. As soon as information is available, we will provide it.
As of this now, no one knows exactly what caused his death. According to the region’s investigative committee, a “procedural investigation” has been started.
According to the Russian Federal Prison Service, Navalny passed away after becoming unwell after going for a stroll. An emergency medical team carried out all “necessary resuscitation measures,” according to the jail service, but they were unsuccessful.
His supporters have expressed worries about Navalny’s well-being and the jail’s circumstances, claiming that he was had to spend numerous days in small “punishment cells” for infractions of minor behavior codes.
Navalny gave a court address via video link from the prison colony the day before he passed away, and he looked well. According to a Russian tabloid, his mother Lyudmila Navalny had also mentioned that he seemed “healthy and happy” when she last saw him.
The most vocal opponent of the Russian government, Sergei Navalny, was poisoned with a military nerve toxin in 2020 while on a business trip in Russia. He directly accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of carrying out the assassination attempt. He had spearheaded anti-government demonstrations around the country for over ten years and entered politics to take on Russian establishment figures.
After being treated in Germany, he managed to survive the attempted poisoning. The poisoning was a hoax, according to the Kremlin.
When Navalny made the decision to return to Russia in 2021, he was detained on suspicion of embezzlement from a 2014 sentence, which he vehemently rejected. Navalny received a 2 ½ year jail sentence for a parole infraction related to the case.
A few months after his sentencing, his anti-corruption fund was labeled an extremist group, and his allies have also faced persecution. The majority of his senior personnel was forced to leave the country after the fund was shut down.
After being found guilty of fresh counts of fraud and contempt of court, Navalny received a nine-year prison sentence. He was found guilty of extremism in August and given a sentence of 19 more years in a high security prison colony. The international community and his sympathizers have claimed that the sentence was a Kremlin plot to lock him up in prison indefinitely. All of the accusations made against Navalny, he had claimed, were made for political reasons.
As Putin concentrated on his war in Ukraine, he spent his last years in prison.
Western politicians were infuriated to learn of Navalny’s passing and immediately placed the blame on Putin, as the Kremlin is gearing up to engineer another Putin election triumph in March.
In a speech at the White House, President Joe Biden stated that while the United States was unaware of Navalny’s whereabouts, “there is no doubt” that his murder “was the consequence of something that Putin and his thugs did.”
While Latvian President Edgars Rinkēvičs stated in a post on X that Navalny “was just brutally murdered by the Kremlin,” Vice President Kamala Harris described the tragedy as “a further sign of Putin’s brutality.”
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy declared that Putin had to “answer for what he has done,” calling it “obvious” that he was the driving force behind Navalny’s demise.
In response, the Kremlin described the accusations as “absolutely rabid statements.”
Funeral arrangements have not been made public.
Conclusion
The mystery surrounding Navalny’s death highlights the ongoing political tensions in Russia and raises concerns about the Kremlin’s influence. As funeral arrangements remain undisclosed, the world waits for answers and justice for Navalny’s legacy.
