Three lawyers who acted for late Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny have been sentenced on charges of taking part in an "extremist organisation".
Vadim Kobzev, Igor Sergunin and Alexei Liptser were arrested in October 2023 as Russian authorities intensified pressure on the jailed Kremlin critic, who died suddenly in February in an Arctic prison colony.
They were put on trial behind closed doors in Petushki, a town east of Moscow, and accused of "using their status" to relay messages between Navalny and his colleagues.
They’ve been given jail terms of up to five-and-a-half years.
