The body of leading Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny has been returned to his mother, his spokesperson says.
It comes after she had reportedly been told to agree to a “secret” burial, or else he would be buried at the prison colony where he died.
In a post on X, Navalny’s spokesperson Kira Yarmysh thanked everybody who had demanded the return of his body.
“The funeral is yet to take place,” she wrote. “We don’t know whether the authorities will interfere with it being carried out in the way the family wants and as Alexei deserves.”

Did you just comment basically the same thing in another thread? “republican traitor filfth”? or is that some new talking point when it comes to Russia? To automatically make anyone think everyone who votes Republican is a horrible traitor (I’m not, many fine people around me are)?
Oh man I miss the calm of non US-election-season internet. No astroturfing.
Both sides aren’t the same. They haven’t been for a while now. Trump is just a manifestation of that.
These fuckers actively tried to overthrow the government. Fuck them, and anyone who is still voting for the party that’s still trying to downplay January 6th.
90% of Republicans are “Republican” in the same way that 90% of people who celebrate Christmas are Christian.
There was a minority (as far as total number of Republicans) of extremists at the capital as there are extremists in every group. But it’s funny that every one of those people seemed to be consuming and sharing Russian propaganda on social media. And Fox/Tucker Carlson and other complicit news agencies with the buildup.
It’s laughable the older I get seeing how many useful idiots there are. Including comrade cabron up there ^ either working for them, or chasing their carrot.
I say we execute all extremists in Minecraft. Problem solved for at least one generation.
I kid, violence against extremists creates even bigger violence. But soon the internet will be sectioned off by country or countries. Russia, China, Iran and many other middle eastern countries are already doing it. And everyone will be happier… for a while.
How many of those 90% of Republicans are going to vote Trump, a proven traitor?
republican = traitor filth. They’re actively working to overthrow the Republic. Fuck ‘em all.
Republican traitor filth - 1 result, on a site that looks like it belongs shelved away in an astroturf network. I’ll check that search result again in a week.
Edit:
Russia saves the day, for once! Thanks Yandex. Astroturfing campaign confirmed.
