Alexei Navalny: Widow vows to continue his work

Alexei Navalny's widow Yulia has vowed to continue his work to fight for a "free Russia" in a video posted on Monday.

Her voice sometimes shaking with grief and anger, Ms Navalnaya asked viewers to stand alongside her and "share the fury and hate for those who dared to kill our future".

She also accused the authorities of hiding her husband's body.

Navalny's death in prison was announced on 16 February.

The prison authorities at the Siberian penal colony he was being held in said he collapsed following a walk and never regained consciousness.

Navalny, who was the Russian opposition's most significant leader for the last decade, had been serving a 19-year sentence on charges many viewed as politically motivated.

Now, Ms Navalnaya - who previously mostly shied away from the spotlight - has indicated she might be ready to continue her husband's political fight for change in Russia.
