Good job, Russia, good job.
Russian protest leader Alexei Navalny has been jailed for five years, for embezzlement from a timber firm.
Navalny had denied the charges, saying the trial was politically motivated.
The 37-year-old had been a leading campaigner against President Putin's United Russia party, and regularly blogged about corruption allegations.
The EU said the verdict posed "serious questions" about the state of Russian law. The US said it was "deeply disappointed".
Before he was handcuffed and led away, Navalny urged his supporters to continue his anti-corruption struggle, tweeting: "Don't sit around doing nothing."
Navalny has previously said he would like to stand for president one day.
He had recently registered his candidacy for the next mayor of Moscow, but his campaign team said that after the verdict he was withdrawing from the race, and called on his supporters to boycott the vote.
Good job, Russia, good job.
