‘I’m a horrible skeleton’: Navalny in court after hunger strike

Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “‘I’m a horrible skeleton’: Navalny in court after hunger strike” – below is their description.

Alexey Navalny has appeared in court for the first time since ending a three-week hunger strike.

The Kremlin critic attended a hearing by video link to appeal against his conviction in February for defaming a World War II veteran.

In a separate court case, proceedings on whether to label Navalny’s opposition network “extremist” have been adjourned.

It is a move that could ban the group and lead to activists facing long prison sentences.
