The case of fraud and insulting the court was heard in an out-of-court hearing in a colony in Vladimir region, where the blogger is already serving his sentence.
As RIA Novosti learned in court, the fraud proceedings were initiated more than a year ago. According to the investigation, Navalny stole part of the money donated by FBK (an extremist organization banned in Russia and a foreign agent) and spent it for personal purposes.
The second episode of the same case concerns insulting Judge Vera Akimova, who convicted the blogger of defaming World War II veteran Ignat Artyomenko - as a result of the trial, Navalny received a fine of 850,000 rubles.
The blogger is serving a prison sentence in Pokrovskoy Colony. He was detained after a suspended sentence in the Yves Rocher embezzlement case was replaced with a real prison sentence last February for probation violations.
Alexei Navalny was earlier included in the list of terrorists.
