The wife of jailed Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny appealed to prison staff to provide him with basic medicines on Wednesday as his supporters warned with increasing urgency that his life was in danger.
“Navalny looks exhausted. He is really ill, and the prison colony is refusing him the most basic and necessary medicines. They are just slowly killing him in prison,” his ally Lyubov Sobol said on Twitter. Navalny, his allies and Western governments and rights groups say he was the victim of trumped-up charges designed to silence him.
