Russian authorities have refused to allow Alexeï Navalny's relatives access to the opponent's remains since his death on Friday. The opponent's team accuses the authorities of hiding the remains to cover up his “murder” “I appeal to you, Vladimir Putin, the solution to this problem depends only on you.

Let me finally see my son. I ask that Alexei's body be returned without delay so that I can bury him in a humane manner,” declared Lyudmila Navalnaïa, filmed not far from the penal colony.
