Russia's most prominent opposition leader Alexei Navalny leaves a police station in Khimki handcuffed where there was an impromptu hearing and where his incarceration was announced. With temperatures hovering around -20 degrees Celsius (-4 Fahrenheit), several dozen Navalny supporters gather outside the police station shouting "Liocha, we are with you". Some of them were arrested. IMAGES
Crowds gather as Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny attends an impromptu hearing behind closed doors in a courtroom set up at a police station in Khimki on the outskirts of Moscow. Police seized Navalny, President Vladimir Putin's most prominent opponent, at a border control post at Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport less than an hour after he returned to Russia from Germany for the first time since he was poisoned with a nerve agent in August.

Hundreds of people gather to pay their respects and lay flowers at the grave of opposition leader Alexei Navalny on the final day of a presidential election that is guaranteed to cement Vladimir Putin's hardline rule. Before his death in an Arctic prison last month, Navalny urged Russians to protest on March 17. His widow, Yulia Navalnaya, has reiterated his call and said protesters should show up in large numbers at the same time to overwhelm polling stations. IMAGES
