Police are searching the Moscow home of Russian opposition figure, Alexey Navalny, and the studio where he films videos for his YouTube channel, associates of the activist have said. The police have yet to comment. Police searches are being carried out at the Moscow home of Russian opposition figure Alexey Navalny, and at a studio where he films videos for his YouTube channel, associates of the imprisoned activist reported on Wednesday.
Writing on Twitter, Ivan Zhdanov, director of Navalny's FBK (Anti-Corruption fund) said “In Maryino [a district of south-east Moscow], they came to the apartment of Alexei Navalny with a search warrant. There are many 'heavies,' in masks."
"They started breaking down the door," he continued. "In the apartment is Oleg Navalny [Alexey's brother]." The activist himself is being held at the Matrosskaya Tishina pre-trial detention center, in the capital, because of his violation of the terms of a probation period in a fraud case involving French cosmetics firm Yves Rocher.
