Putin critic Kara-Murza isolated in Siberian prison
TL;DR Summary
Russian opposition figure Vladimir Kara-Murza Jr., who was sentenced to 25 years in prison for treason, has been transferred to a maximum security prison in Siberia. His lawyer expressed concern for his health as he suffers from a nerve condition due to two poisoning attempts. The transfer took less than three weeks, which is unusually fast for Russian prison transfers. Kara-Murza's case is part of the Kremlin's crackdown on dissent, and his supporters have called for his release.
