💨 Abstract

Four Russian journalists, Antonina Favorskaya, Sergei Karelin, Konstantin Gabov, and Artem Kriger, were sentenced to 5-1/2 years in prison by a Moscow court for working for the banned organization of late opposition leader Alexei Navalny. The trial, held behind closed doors since October, saw them charged with belonging to an extremist group, a charge they deny. The verdict was reported by Russian news outlets.
