LONDON – Alexei Navalny, reported to have died on Friday by Russia's prison service, was the fiercest domestic opponent of Vladimir Putin, whom he accused of trying to kill him and of having him jailed on bogus charges and deprived of medical care. He was 47.
The Kremlin suggested Navalny was a CIA stooge and troublemaker out to topple the authorities and turn Moscow into a pliant US vassal state. Putin never mentioned him by name. He used YouTube to urge young voters to put their faith in what he called the "beautiful Russia of the future", but found it harder to connect with people outside big cities.
Putin denied the Russian state had tried to kill Navalny, saying it would have "finished the job" if it had really wanted to eliminate him. "The security services are following us. They follow my children, my wife and me. Cars are constantly passing by. I don't even pay attention to it any more, but Yulia is really bothered by it."The son of an army officer, Alexei Anatolievich Navalny was born on June 4, 1976 and grew up mainly in Obninsk, about 100 km southwest of Moscow.
His description of the ruling party as "crooks and thieves" resonated with followers and he was detained multiple times in the following years. In 2013 he was sentenced to a five year term on corruption charges before being freed the following day.
