Moscow’s Golovinsky District Court has sentenced 46-year-old Pyaterochka supermarket employee Yelena Albegova to three years in prison over a 1,000-ruble donation to Alexei Navalny’s Anti-Corruption Foundation, or FBK.
Albegova was convicted under Part 1 of Article 282.3 of the Russian Criminal Code, which covers financing extremist activity.
The transfer was made in August 2021, after organizations linked to Navalny had been designated “extremist” by a Russian court.
Prosecutors had also requested a three-year prison sentence.
