She's in a car with one of his lawyers outside police air, waiting to arrest her.

Sobel is one of several people close to Navalny that have now been detained for promoting illegal mass protests planned for this weekend, demanding Navalny be freed from prison.

In the video, she says she has nothing to hide, and she'll go to the protests anyway.

She was later released, but not all of them were.

Reuters has also learned that Navalny knew he would probably be jailed when he returned to Russia from Germany last Sunday.

Where he had been recovering from the incident with West says was an attempted poisoning with a chemical weapon.

Let's say Are you are you worried now?

Are you nervous?

No, not at all.

At the time, Navalny said he didn't believe he'd be arrested.

But the protests, according Toa one Navalny associate, were planned in anticipation of that scenario as a way to force the Kremlin's hand for his eventual release.

He's accused of breaking the terms of a separate jail sentence.

Accusations of embezzlement charges he says were trumped up good, never himself.

It's not clear how successful the protest strategy, maybe the seven years ago Navalny was released from prison on parole after mass protests.

But two sources close to the Kremlin say this time will probably be different.

Navalny has become more of a threat.

They say they don't believe he's a serious threat to President Putin yet whose approval ratings dwarf Navalny.

But the sources also say that the heavy handed way that Navalny's return was dealt with was likely boosting his support and could risk turning him into a martyr.

One said he might be kept behind bars until after September's parliament elections that actually policy.
