Tragic, effectively murder of the Russian oppositionist by the totalitarian regime of Vladimir Putin. Mother of Aleksei Navalny has seen the body of her son and confirmed his identity.

Terrorist actions of the Russian state

Tragic happenings in Russia are entering a new chapter. The Kremlin's regime has been log trying to bully Navalny's family after his death. They were refusing to show them his body, and they were refusing to name the real cause of the death of the oppositionist.

Vladimir Putin has been trying to destroy Navalny for a very long. He poisoned him and then put him in the colony, effectively something between a concentration camp and a gulag. The conditions of living in such a colony are extremely dreadful, and Navalny is bullied during his stay. Finally, Putin achieved his goal, and Aleksei Navalny was reported dead.

Blackmail of Navalny's family

It was not the end of the grusome actions by the Kremlin regime. After Navalny's death they were trying to make it as hard as possible for the oppositionist's family. The mother of Navalny has finally seen the body of her son after a long struggle.

In the video she posted on the official Navalny's social media channels, she confirmed she had seen the body and it was really her son. She said some disturbing things too. According to the Russian law the authorities of the colony are obliged to give the body of the dead to the family, the mother of Navalny says that they refused to do that and that they blackmail her. They want to arrange the victim's funeral in silence and want to set the conditions for the funeral.

The mother of Navalny obviously wants to do the funeral on the family's condition. Vladimir Putin wants to do everything in his power to demise the death of Navalny and prevent him from becoming an even greater symbol. The official funeral could help in bolstering Navalny's myth. Despite the struggle and oppression of the regime, people were still trying to lay flowers in Moscow and Petersburg for Navalny. They were being chased by the police and severely beaten.
