Alexei Navalny has 'bank accounts frozen and flat seized'
24 September 2020
Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny has had his bank accounts frozen and flat seized after a court order, his spokeswoman says.
A day earlier he was discharged from a hospital where he was being treated for Novichok nerve agent poisoning.
"They seized the assets and the apartment of a person who was in a coma," Kira Yarmysh said.
His team accuses President Vladimir Putin of ordering the poisoning, something the Kremlin strongly denies.

Ms Yarmysh said officials had seized the opposition activist's assets on 27 August, including his three-bedroom apartment in the south-east of the Russian capital, Moscow.
