MOSCOW—Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was discharged from a hospital on Monday, July 29, even though his physician raised suspicions of a possible poisoning after he suffered facial swelling and a rash while in jail.
Details about Navalny’s condition were scarce after he was rushed to a hospital Sunday with what authorities said was a suspected allergy attack inside a detention facility where he was serving a 30-day sentence for calling an unsanctioned protest. Navalny was arrested several days before a major opposition rally Saturday that ended with nearly 1,400 people detained.
