A source cited by Novaya Gazeta stated that Alexei Navalny's body is in the morgue of Salekhard hospital and that bruises possibly caused by convulsions and one consistent with cardiac massage have been identified on the body.
"Such bruises - according to the source - appear following convulsions. The person is shaken by convulsions, they try to hold him back and so the signs appear.
They said he has a bruise on his chest. It's something that appears during a cardiac massage. That is to say that they tried to resuscitate him but he died, most likely from cardiac arrest.
But no one is saying anything about the cause of his arrest."
