BBC: Russians bid farewell to murdered politician Nemtsov
Thousands of Russians have bid farewell to murdered Russian opposition politician Boris Nemtsov as his funeral took place in the capital Moscow.
They queued patiently to view his coffin before it began its solemn journey to a city cemetery.
Several EU politicians and Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny were barred from attending the funeral.
Hours later, Mr Navalny accused the Russian authorities of responsibility for the murder.
