moscow - Aleksej Navalny was re-secured in Moscow on Saturday. The Russian opposition leader, a fierce critic of President Vladimir Putin, was arrested for his home in the capital for unclear reasons. His spokeswoman announced that.
Navalny (42) recently called on Russians to take to the streets again on 9 September. On that day regional elections are held in the capital and many other areas. With earlier calls for demonstrations, Navalny brought tens of thousands of people on their feet.
In March this year, the politician was sentenced to fifteen days in prison in the aftermath of a banned demonstration. He had ignored police orders.
