Britain has imposed sanctions against the heads of the Arctic colony, where the Russian oppositionist Alexei Navalny died. This UNN reports with reference to the British Foreign Office.

Details

"The UK has imposed sanctions on six people who headed the penal colony where Navalny died," reads the report.

It is stated that those under sanctions will have their assets frozen and will be banned from traveling to the UK.

Those hit by the sanctions include:

-       Colonel Vadim Konstantinovich Kalinin is the head of the Arctic colony IK-3 "Polar Wolf".

-       Lieutenant Colonel Korzhov Sergey Nikolaevich - Deputy Chief.

-       Lieutenant Colonel Vasily Vydrin - Deputy Chief.

-       Lieutenant Colonel Pilipchik Vladimir Ivanovich - Deputy Chief.

-       Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vladimirovich Golyakov - Deputy Chief.

-       Colonel Obraztsov Alexander Valeryevich - Deputy Chief.

"It is clear that the Russian authorities saw Navalny as a threat and repeatedly tried to silence him. In 2020, FSB officers poisoned him with Novichok, jailed him for his peaceful political activities and sent him to an Arctic colony. No one should doubt the repressive nature of the Russian system," Foreign Secretary David Cameron said.

The UK also calls for Navalny's body to be immediately handed over to his family and for a full and transparent investigation.
