Navalny was criminally indicted in June last year on charges of slander and slander against a retired soldier who fought in World War II. 프리미어리그중계
Nabalny posted a video clip of Ignat Artemenko, a 93-year-old World War II veteran who supported then-President Vladimir Putin's constitutional revision, on his social networking services (SNS) accounts, accusing him of being a "buy servant," "conscientious man" and "traitor."
In response, the Russian Veterans Federation accused Nabalny of slander, and Artemenko's family also demanded punishment, saying that the elderly veterans who read Nabalny's article were shocked and their health deteriorated rapidly.
Later, the Federal Investigation Committee, which is responsible for serious crimes, investigated the case and indicted Nabalny.
The Babushkinsky court, which was in charge of the trial, announced in late August last year that Nabalny was staying in Germany to treat toxic symptoms, but resumed judicial proceedings when he returned home recently.
If convicted, Navalni will be fined up to 1 million rubles (about 15 million won) or punished for 240 hours of mandatory labor.
Earlier on the 2nd, Nabalny was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison after being found guilty of failing to fulfill his duty of probation related to his 2014 conviction for involvement in a fraud case.
"Putin Static," who has consistently accused high-ranking Russian officials of corruption, was taken to Berlin Hospital in August last year for treatment and returned home on April 17, but was immediately arrested and arrested at the airport.
German experts say Navalni is addicted to the old Soviet-era military nerve agent "Novichok" series of poison, which the Russian government refutes, although it claims its intelligence authorities attempted to poison him.
Navalni supporters staged a series of nationwide rallies calling for his release on March 23 and March 31.
