DM UK: More than 20,000 protesters have marched through Moscow to protest against the killing of opposition leader Boris Nemtsov.

Crowds of mourners and activists were seen waving flags and holding placards of the murdered Russian politician’s face as they made their way through the city centre towards where he was killed on Friday night.

As the vast protest snaked its way through the Russian capital, men, women and children could be seen holding back tears as they held up signs reading: ‘I am not afraid.’
