A court in Moscow seeks the arrest of Alexey Navajo's wife

A court in Moscow has ordered the arrest of Yulia Navalnaya, the wife of the late opposition leader Alexey Navajo.

The news has revealed her spokeswoman on Tuesday. The order was issued by the Basmaniy District Court in Moscow, which accuses Navalny's wife of having “participating in an extremist organisation.

The decision means that Navallaya, who lives outside Russia, will face certain arrest if he steps into the country.

The 47-year-old was the focus of attention following her husband's death in an Arctic prison in February and said she would continue the fight for what Navlan called “Russia's beautiful future”.

Using a post at <x0X” on Tuesday, Navalnaya told her supporters not to focus on the court's order against her, but on the battle against Russian President Vladimir Putin.
