The critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has decried the allegations as a political move to put him in jail for a long time, is already carrying out a 2 1/2 year sentence in a penal colony. The prosecution asked for the 13-year sentence and a fine of 1.2 million rubles (roughly $10,700) during closing arguments Tuesday, the Associated Press reported.

During that time, Summer Game Fest will kick off its own introduction event at the beginning of this month, followed by announcements in between....
