Widow of Alexei Navalny claims tests show her husband was poisoned before his death
- Yulia Navalnaya, widow of Alexei Navalny, stated that two independent laboratories concluded her husband was poisoned before his death.
- Alexei Navalny, a prominent opponent of President Vladimir Putin, died in a Russian penal colony in February 2024 while serving a 19-year sentence.
- Ms Navalnaya claims the laboratories, located in different countries, reached the same conclusion but have withheld their findings due to 'political considerations'.
- She is now demanding that these laboratories publish their results, asserting that her husband was killed.
- Russian officials previously attributed Navalny's death to 'a dozen different diseases' and arrhythmia, a claim Ms Navalnaya disputes, having consistently blamed the Russian president.
