Russian police today arrested the brother of jailed Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny following a search of an opposition politician's apartment in Moscow, his team said.
His arrest follows police raids on the offices of Navalny's group in Moscow and several other properties associated with him.
Russian police are stepping up investigations into Navalny and his entourage, his team said, just days before new rallies were held against the Russian government.
