She cites tests on biological samples taken after his 2024 prison death, urging the findings’ release.

Overview

  • Yulia Navalnaya says samples moved abroad were analyzed in two countries and both laboratories independently concluded poisoning.
  • She has not published the lab reports and says she cannot obtain official results identifying the specific toxic agent.
  • Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said he had nothing to say and did not know about the new allegations.
  • Allies shared witness accounts and photos from the Kharp colony describing vomiting, convulsions and guards failing to intervene.
  • Russia’s prison service recorded his Feb. 16, 2024 death at the Arctic IK-3 facility as sudden death syndrome, and Navalnaya says most evidence remains in Russia, limiting foreign criminal investigations.
