Navalny’s widow also stated, that according to testimony from five colony employees, before his death the politician suffered severe pain, convulsions, and vomiting, but was not given timely medical assistance.
The forensic medical examination records do not mention convulsions. However, the report does note bruising on Navalny’s elbows and knees, sustained 30–40 minutes before death, as well as hemorrhaging in the parietal region.
“Alexei, in convulsions, was thrashing on the floor. That’s apparently where these marks came from,” Navalnaya said.
No video recordings of Alexei Navalny’s final day in the colony have been preserved.
