ALEX Salmond's private burial will not take place for at least another week, it has been revealed.
A funeral service for the former first minister will take place somewhere in the northeast of Scotland.
There will also be a larger public memorial service for the former SNP leader later in the year, possibly on St Andrew's Day.
Salmond died of a heart attack while attending a conference in North Macedonia, near Albania and Greece, last weekend.
His body was flown back to Scotland in a private plane on Friday.
