The Office of the Federal Penitentiary Service (FSIN) in Moscow confirmed the intention to detain Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny after his return from Germany, where he was recovering from severe poisoning.
Navalny has been in Germany since August 2020, where he was undergoing treatment and recovery after he was poisoned on a plane flying from Tomsk to Moscow.
An examination carried out in Berlin showed that Navalny was poisoned with a substance belonging to Novichok nerve agents.
After conducting their own investigation, journalists and independent investigators stated Russian special services were involved in Navalny’s poisoning.

The Kremlin is making every effort to ensure that opposition politician Alexei Navalny does not return home. The Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation opened a criminal case against the oppositionist under the article of fraud on a particularly large scale.
The reason for this was voluntary donations of Russians to the Anti-Corruption Foundation header by Navalny, the Fifth Season media support fund, the Foundation for the Organization and Coordination of Citizens Rights and the SHTAB Foundation for the Protection of Citizens Rights. According to the investigation, these organizations collected 588 million rubles ($7.87 million) from individuals, of which 356 million ($4.88) Navalny, acting together with other persons, spent for personal purposes.
