This has brought me to tears. Such bravery and such savage spite by Putin. I doubt very much this giant of a man died a natural death. May he RIP and I pray his fight wasn’t in vain sad

He said he had to go back.
He was seen about a month ago on a video in pretty good spirits despite being in that most terrible of prisons.

Bill Browder is currently talking about him on LBC

Why did he go back! Poor man, good man! Not many so brave.

Dreadful news.
A man of great courage.
RIP

So very sad to hear this, but I am amazed that he survived this long.

He was a very brave man. I do hope his death isn't in vain...

Awful. Let's hope that his message lives on and that there will be others to take his place, although they will have to be extremely brave.

Such a brave man. RIP
You left your mark Alexei.

And how brave was his wife.
I can't imagine having her strength.
