The widow of Alexei Navalny, who died in February 2024 while imprisoned at an Arctic penal colony in Russia, said Wednesday that her husband was poisoned after two labs tested biological samples from his body.
Until his death last year, Navalny was one of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s fiercest critics. The opposition leader was barred from running against the incumbent in 2018 due to an embezzlement conviction, one action that the Kremlin has taken against the dissenter. He was eventually imprisoned for a lengthy sentence.
