Maria Butina, Russian agent who infiltrated NRA, visits Navalny in jail, with video cameras in tow

Source: Washington Post

“Instead of a doctor, Butina, a wretched propagandist from RT channel, arrived today accompanied by video cameras,” said a post Thursday on Navalny’s Twitter account. She was “shouting that this is the best and most comfortable prison.”

The account said Navalny lectured her for 15 minutes in front of the other prisoners, calling her “a parasite and a servant of thieves.”

Posts on Navalny’s social media are made in his name by members of his team since he has no access to the Internet.

Navalny, suffering severe back pain, requested access to a doctor and painkilling injections. He says he is beginning to lose feeling in both legs.

Butina should still be in jail in the US.

to harass him, won’t let in dr to attend to his pain 😕
Sounds as if he has a severe ruptured spinal disc if he’s losing the feeling in his legs, left unattended it could become permanent and he could lose the use of his legs 😕

That's the inherent 'might makes right' cruelty of fascism, Putin style.
