British-Russian dissident Vladimir Kara-Murza lost his appeal against a 25-year prison term on Monday
The UK government has imposed sanctions on those involved in the “deplorable” sentencing of the dual-national dissident Vladimir Kara-Murza after a Russian court dismissed his appeal against a 25-year sentence.
Six figures – three judges, two prosecutors and an expert witness – will face sanctions for their role in a “politically motivated conviction”.
