A Russian human rights group says police detained at least 45 people across Russia during the funeral of opposition leader Alexei Navalny.

Several thousand people gathered outside the church and graveyard, knowing that they may face arrest for being associated with what the Kremlin calls an extremist movement.

Navalny died on Feb. 16, and was a vocal critic of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

As our Redmond Shannon reports, in the absence of Navalny's wife and children, his parents led the mourners.
