President Putin lays flowers at Akhmad Kadyrov's grave with Alu Alkhanov and Ramzan Kadyrov (Tsentoroi, 22 August 2004)
Three men stand among Muslim gravestones in a village cemetery: Putin in a dark jacket and black polo neck at left, a man in a grey suit in the centre, and a bearded man in a dark red embroidered cap and blue jacket at right. The tell is the head of state at the grave of the slain Chechen president with his designated successor and son, which pairs the Kremlin with the Kadyrov name and the local religious setting.
