The investigation proved Kholodny's participation in an extremist organization (Part 2 of Article 282.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) and financing of extremist activities (Article 282.3 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).

As RT wrote, in March 2023, Navalny finished familiarizing himself with the case materials, the case was being approved by the prosecutor's office for several months. As RT previously reported, the terrorism and extremism case against Navalny was initiated in October 2022. The "terrorist" composition, according to RT, has been separated into a separate proceeding and will be considered by another court.

According to RT sources, the new charges are partly related to the spring attempts to Navalny provoke so-called anti-war protests. At that time, Navalny, as well as representatives of his entourage, called on activists, among other things, to overthrow the state system and wage an armed struggle against the legitimate authorities.

According to sources, he personally supervised the actions of his supporters.
