"Two or three" Sinn Féin councillors paid their respects from the roadside at a republican funeral in Londonderry, the party's Gerry Kelly has said.
Police have begun an investigation into potential breaches of Covid-19 regulations at the funeral of an IRA man.
Eamon McCourt, 62, who reportedly died with Covid-19, was buried on Monday.
"Let me make it very clear that Sinn Féin was not involved in organising this funeral," Mr Kelly said.
"It was arranged by the family."
