Roman Dobrokhotov, editor-in-chief of The Insider, told Reuters the authorities had accused him of illegally crossing the border to leave Russia. The Insider angered authorities by helping identify state security officials it said were behind the poisoning of Navalny in August last year. The Kremlin denies media outlets are targeted for political reasons. His lawyer Yulia Kuznetsova told Reuters he had been declared a wanted man on Sept 23. Dobrokhotov attended a conference in Estonia's Tallinn in early September that was attended by allies of jailed Kremlin critic Alexei Navalny.
