Angola's former strongman president Jose Eduardo dos Santos, whose nearly four-decade rule of the oil-rich nation was marred by allegations of plunder and nepotism is laid to rest amid a family row. The funeral, which was disputed by some of his children, is held at the historic palm tree lined Praca da Republica in the seaside capital Luanda on what would have been dos Santos's 80th birthday. Those family members who do attend do so "with a heavy heart and a great sadness," Josiana dos Santos says. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
