Navalny's mum appeals to Putin to release son's body

Alexei Navalny's mother, Lyudmila Navalnaya, has made multiple pleas outside the Arctic penal colony where her son died on Friday, expressing her inability to see his body and urging Russian President Vladimir Putin to intervene. Authorities have yet to determine the cause of Navalny's death, which is still unknown according to their statements. Yulia Navalnaya, Alexei's widow, has also vowed to continue his political opposition work and blamed Putin for his death in a video statement. Investigators have refused to release Navalny's body to his family.
