Moscow: Several hundred people, including top Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny, were arrested on Sunday as thousands of Russians defied bans to stage protests across the country against corruption. Mr Navalny called for the marches after publishing a detailed report this month accusing Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev of controlling a property empire through a shadowy network of nonprofit organisations. The report has been viewed over 11 million times on YouTube, but so far Mr Medvedev has made no comment on the claims. Mr Navalny has announced plans to run for President in 2018.
