RUSSIA NAVALNY TRIAL

epa03791431 Russian opposition figure, Alexei Navalny (R), reacts as the court delivers the verdict in his trial, in the city of Kirov, Russia, 18 July 2013. Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was found guilty of embezzlement on 18 July by a city court, news agencies reported. The sentence was expected to be handed down after the judge finished reading the verdict later in the day. In the politically charged trial, Navalny was accused of stealing 500,000 dollars worth of timber from a state enterprise while serving as a regional government adviser in Kirov, a city 800 kilometres east of Moscow, where the court was also located. Prosecutors have asked for Navalny to be sentenced to six years in a labour camp. Navalny denied the charges and has called the trial politically motivated. EPA/VALENTINA SVISTUNOVA
