MOSCOW, April 25 - RAPSI. Renowned whistleblower Alexei Navalny has filed an appeal against the court's refusal to order the Federal Antimonopoly Service to accept his complaint about a tender procedure.

Lyublinsky District Court spokeswoman Maria Balakshina said earlier that Navalny sought to invalidate the watchdog's dismissal of his complaint about a public power supply system auction.

The plaintiff said in his statement of claim that the official website of the Russian government published in August 2011 documents and advertisements about a public tender for organizing and commissioning power supply systems. Navalny said the tender document contains violations and attempted to challenge the tender with the antimonopoly service, Balakshina said.

The watchdog said it dismissed Navalny's petition as he filed his complaint as a Sberbank shareholder, and the company was a bidder in the tender.

The district court ruled that the watchdog's decision is valid and dismissed Navalny's petition. The judgment has not yet to come into force as the blogger appealed the ruling.
