Russia opens new criminal case against Oleg Navalny | DW News

Authorities in Russia have opened a new criminal case against the brother of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Oleg Navalny was already on the wanted list for another matter. In 2014, Oleg Navalny was sentenced to 3 and a half years in prison for fraud in a case Kremlin critics said was trumped up. Now police say they have opened a new case but have not unveiled details of the charges. This comes after the mother of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny made a direct appeal to Vladimir Putin for his body to be released.
