Mediazona found the FSIN convoy between Labytnangi and Salekhard. He could transport the body of Navalny

Three days after the official announcement of the death of Alexei Navalny, relatives cannot get his body - and even see him. In the colony of his mother, politician Lyudmila Navalny said that he was taken to the morgue in Salekhard, they say that they have no bodies. Mediazona studied videos from cameras at the crossing between Labytnangi and Salekhard - this is the only ground route that you can get from a colony in a Harpe in the district center. We managed to find a motorcade of four cars, including the FSIN car, which crossed the Ob River in the direction of Salekhard. Given that this happened at midnight, we assume that it was with this escort that Navalny’s body was taken towards Salekhard.

What happened to Navalny's body after death

The document, which the colony officers handed over to the Navalny Mother, it is written that he died on February 16 at 14:17 local time. One of the prisoners IK-3 told the Novaya Gazeta Europe that the death colony was known four hours before. Officially, death was reported only at 16:11 local time.

The local ambulance service reported that the doctors from the village got to the colony in seven minutes or more than half an hour tried to reanimate Navalny. After that, as an unnamed employee of the Salekhard ambulance station told the “new”, the body was sent to the hospital in Labytnangi - half an hour drive from the village of Harp. And only on the evening of February 16, according to this source, Navalny was brought to the morgue in the Salekhard District Clinical Hospital.

Mediazona studied surveillance cameras near the only ground crossing between Labytnangi and Salekhard and discovered the FSIN motorcade, which was traveling along this route on the night of February 16 to 17 - it was he who could transport the body of politics.

Crossing and cameras

The colony in Harpe, where they contained Navalny, and the closest city of Labytnangi are located on the left bank of the Ob River. On the right is Salekhard, the capital of the Yamalo -Nenets Autonomous Okrug. There is no bridge between Labytnangi and Salekhard: in the summer it walks across the river, and in winter they organize a crossing on ice. If you do not consider transportation by a helicopter, the ice crossing is the only way between IK-3 and the morgue in Salekhard.

On the website of one of the local Internet providers, Mediazona found public access to street webcams located on both sides of the crossing-they allow local residents to evaluate the condition of the crossing and observe the queues on the steam. A weekly record archive is saved there.

The first camera that interests us is installed on the side of Labytnangi and captures from afar all the way across the river to Salekhard, the second - not far from the exit to the shore in Salekhard. Records from the first chamber are made at a greater distance than from the second, and therefore a little less detail.

Records from the second camera are interrupted every few minutes due to webcams problems: it constantly reboots and spends a few seconds on focus. Despite the malfunctions, we managed to find the moment you are interested in on records from both cameras.

We do not give a direct link to the record source, but decided to download all the video stream available at the time of publication of the text in two telegram channels ( first and second cameras). This is the period from 10 to 18 February. We urge our colleagues to join the study of this video, as we could skip something or not notice.

The Mediazone carefully studied all day on February 16, starting from dawn, when Navalny was usually taken out for a walk.

A few minutes before midnight on February 17, for the first time in the entire day, cars appeared in the road-patrol service of the police. This is the only case in these days when several cars of state structures at once move as part of one column.

Cortege

The column, in addition to the drive and closing cars of the DPS, was a gray sedan with civilian numbers and the UAZ minibus with two characteristic green stripes, which indicate machines of the penal system (FSIN).

The column moved noticeably slower than other cars at the crossing. The leading traffic police machine periodically slowed down and even stopped so that others did not lag behind. Exactly at midnight, the cars drove to the other side and continued the movement towards Salekhard. Publicly affordable surveillance cameras in the city, which would follow their further route, could not be found “mediazone”.

To make sure that such a crossing of the Ob with the Federal Penitentiary Service of the Federal Penitentiary Service is exactly at midnight - this is not a standard convoy or stage procedure, the Mediazone checked the records for the previous few days. Then there were no columns at midnight at the crossing.

We demand to give out the body of Navalny to his family

The record discovered by the Mediazona confirms that the UFSIN employees of the Yamalo -Nenets Autonomous Okrug transported Navalny’s body to Salekhard on the night before his mother Lyudmila and Lawyers. We do not know where the politician could deliver the body after the crossing, but it is obvious that he was deliberately hidden from his relatives.

"Mediazona", together with thousands of Russians, demands to give out the body of Alexei Navalny to his family.
