In addition, Russia has not yet received the test results and the toxicological conclusion of Navalny. “None of this,” he added.

At the Sheremetyevo airport, Navalny was detained on the basis of an order from the Federal Penitentiary Service for Moscow, according to which he was put on the wanted list at the end of December last year for systematic violations of the conditions of the probationary period. The UFSIN noted that the detainee’s lawyer was aware of this decision, and also got acquainted with the submission of the Criminal Execution Inspectorate (UII) on the cancellation of the suspended sentence and the execution of the sentence imposed by the sentence.
