MOSCOW, February 29. /TASS/. Russian Human Rights Commissioner Tatyana Moskalkova has not received any complaints about alleged problems with the organization of a farewell ceremony for late Alexey Navalny, she told reporters.

"I have not been approached regarding this issue [problems with organization of the farewell ceremony], but there were requests to hand the body over to his mother. The body has been handed over and the funeral will take place in such a way as his relatives will decide," Moskalkova said in response to a question.

On February 16, the Federal Penitentiary Service’s department for the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District broke the news of Alexey Navalny’s death in the penal colony where he was serving time. According to the department, Navalny felt unwell after a walk and lost consciousness. Medical workers immediately rushed to help the convict. Resuscitation efforts on Navalny lasted more than half an hour. Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov slammed the West’s statements concerning Navalny’s death as rabid and totally inadmissible, given that there is no official information about the cause of his death.
