“Anything but fair”. Four Russian journalists jailed for 5.5 years over alleged ties to Navalny’s banned Anti‑Corruption Foundation

A Moscow court has sentenced four journalists to five and a half years in prison each for allegedly participating in the activities of Alexei Navalny’s Anti-Corruption Foundation (ACF, ФБК in Russian), which the Kremlin has outlawed as an “extremist” organisation. The verdict was handed down after all hearings were held behind closed doors, with press and public barred from attending.
