Russian court declares Navalny groups 'extremist' ahead of elections
CNN
A Moscow court on Wednesday ruled that two organizations linked to jailed Kremlin critic Alexey Navalny are "extremist" groups -- forcing them to shut down and rendering their members ineligible to run in upcoming elections.
Wednesday's ruling targeted both Navalny's regional political offices and the Anti-Corruption Foundation which he founded. The foundation, known as FBK, conducts investigations into alleged corruption in Russia.More Related News
