Kira Yarmysh, Alexei Navalny's spokeswoman announced that his body was handed over to his mother. This is after Yarmysh reported on Friday that the country's authorities gave the mother an ultimatum, according to which she must decide on a burial without a ceremony or a public funeral, or her son will be buried near where he was imprisoned where he died a week ago. Yarmysh doesn't know if the authorities will allow the family to conduct the funeral "the way the family wants and the way Alexei deserves." (Reuters)
