Journalists from Mediazona have uncovered footage showing a convoy, including a prison service truck, police cars, and an unidentified sedan, traveling between the prison where Alexey Navalny was held and Salekhard, the nearest city with a morgue, on the night following Navalny's death. The convoy, presumed to be carrying Navalny's body, was captured by roadside cameras and traffic cam footage on the only bridge connecting the prison to Salekhard around midnight on 16-17 February. This discovery came shortly before Russian authorities informed Navalny's family of the need to retain his body for an extended period for investigation purposes. Following the release of the footage by Mediazona, the video feeds were reportedly shut down. Additionally, Mediazona received and verified information regarding the license plates of the vehicles involved.
