"Russian Authorities Hand Over Alexei Navalny's Body to His Mother"

The body of Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny has been handed over to his mother after more than a week since his death in an Arctic prison, with his wife accusing Putin of "satanism" and trying to force a secret funeral. Western leaders have accused Putin and the Russian authorities of killing Navalny, who was the president's most prominent critic, while the Kremlin denies the accusations. Navalny's death came a month before a presidential election in which Putin is expected to easily claim re-election, and his team has accused the Russian state of murdering him. People across Russia have come out to honor Navalny's memory, leading to scores of detentions by the authorities.
