Kremlin critic Alexey Navalny is being held in a prison camp in Russia’s Vladimir region northeast of Moscow known for its strict control of inmates, a message posted on the opposition politician’s Instagram account confirmed on Monday.
Mr. Navalny’s precise location had been unknown after his legal team said last week that he had been moved from the nearby Kolchugino jail and that they had not been told where he was being taken.

The European Court of Human Rights is demanding Russia release jailed Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny, warning in a Wednesday ruling that failing to do so would violate the top court’s human rights standards. 
The legal body, which serves as the international court of Europe’s main human rights forum, the Council of Europe, said in a press release announcing the ruling that Russia must immediately release Navalny, citing the “nature and extent of risk to the applicant’s life.”
The Strasbourg, France-based court wrote that information provided by Russia, a member of the Council of Europe, on its prison conditions were contradicted by Navalny’s legal team.

Senior Political Lecturer Dr Colin Alexander told Express.co.uk  he does not believe Alexei Navalny will be the one to replace Vladimir Putin but alternatively, his existence offers a chance for Russia's leader to control his main opposition. Dr Alexander argued authoritarian regimes need the illusion of opposition to justify its legitimacy and by controlling this “space” means the dominant power can limit any real dangers to its rule. The Nottingham Trent academic added Mr Navalny is not a “messianic” figure and has plenty of “flaws” President Putin can manipulate.
