Thousands of Russians have bid farewell to murdered Russian opposition politician Boris Nemtsov as his funeral took place in the capital Moscow.

They queued patiently to view his coffin before it began its the solemn journey to a city cemetery where he was laid to rest, according to BBC.

Several EU politicians and Russia's opposition leader were barred from attending the funeral.

No arrests have been made and no motive has been established for the crime.

Nemtsov's final resting place is at Troyekurovskoye Cemetery, where murdered journalist Anna Politkovskaya was buried in 2006.
