Vladimir Kara-Murza’s wife told Andrew Marr she has 'every reason' to believe her husband's life is in danger after he previously survived two FSB poisoning attempts
The wife of a Putin critic, who is facing up to 10-years in prison for speaking out against the invasion of Ukraine, has vowed to "fight for as long as it takes" to bring her husband home.
Speaking on Tonight with Andrew Marr, Mrs Kara-Murza said: "I would love to ask for more support and help from the British Government for my husband's case because Vladimir was already a victim of two attempts on his life in the past. He was in a work meeting in Moscow in May 2015 when he began to feel sick suddenly before he lost consciousness.He believes he was lucky to survive.
Ilya Yashin, an opposition colleague of Kara-Murza and former head of the Krasnoselsky municipal district in Moscow, wrote on Twitter at the time of his arrest: "Vladimir Kara-Murza was detained by the police in Moscow near his home. What exactly is presented is still unknown."
