MOSCOW (Reuters) - A Russian court on Sunday handed the retired father of one of jailed Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny's allies a three-year suspended sentence, his lawyer said, in a corruption case that critics say is without merit.
Prosecutors had asked for Yury Zhdanov, 67, to be sentenced to three years in jail, his lawyer Vladimir Voronin said earlier this week, on charges of fraud and forgery.
