Russian opposition leader in coma with suspected poisoning

The Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny is reportedly in a coma after what his spokeswoman called a poisoning. Last year he was also suspected to have been poisoned.

He started feeling unwell on a flight from the Siberian city of Tomsk to Moscow, she said. The plane landed in Omsk and he was taken to hospital. "We assume that Alexei was poisoned with something mixed with his tea," she said. "That's the only thing he drank this morning."
