SocietyRussian political scientist Alexander Kynev goes on hunger strike over unusable toilet in overcrowded cell, lawyer says

Political scientist Alexander Kynev, held in pretrial detention on charges of attempting to sell drugs, has begun a hunger strike, the legal advocacy project Slovo Zashchite says. His lawyer says Kynev cannot use the floor opening that serves as a toilet in a cell shared with 34 others because his broken leg is in a cast. Kynev denies the drug charges.
