'Just days after Alexei #Navalny 's death, Vladimir #Putin has signed a decree decorating the deputy director of the #Russian #prison service Valery Boyarinev' he is now a colonel-general (or full general)

#BBCMonitoring 's #Russian media analyst Francis Scarr was looking for traces of #Navalny news and drew a blank:
'I've checked the morning news bulletins across Russian state TV today, there has been zero mention of Alexei Navalny.The #Kremlin is doing its best to make his death a complete non-story for the tens of millions of Russians who get their news from its #propaganda machine'
Last night when they broke the news,
'they didn't show his face once and are referring to him as a mere "convict"
