Opposition leader Alexei Navalny has been sentenced to 11.5 years in prison.
At the same time, new charges are constantly being brought against him, which means that the sentence is being extended.
Navalny is serving his sentence in a high-security prison and is punished for the slightest disobedience.
He is also not guaranteed confidentiality.
This means that all letters he receives and everything lawyers say to him must go through the staff at the institution.
Moreover, only lawyers are allowed to talk to him – and they only get to hear his voice.
The window in the meeting room is painted dark and it is impossible to see the person you are meeting.
Telephone calls with family are prohibited.
The "Liberation Campaign" has been launched
At the same time, dissatisfaction is growing.
Hundreds of teachers, lawyers and local politicians have written open letters to President Vladimir Putin demanding that the terror be stopped and that he be given access to healthcare.
- After that, he got access to care and two more glasses of hot water a day.
But he is not allowed to know the name of his doctor, nor the name of the medicine he is given, says Jarmysj.
Now the opposition leader's former colleagues at the anti-corruption foundation FBK have also started an online campaign to draw attention to Navalny's condition.
- It becomes more difficult to murder someone when everyone's eyes are on the victim, says Kira Jarmysh, Alexei Navalny's spokesperson, to SVT.
