The funeral has taken place in Bangkok of the renegade Thai general Khattiya Sawasdipol.
Hundreds of mourners, led by members of the general's family, gathered at a pagoda in the city's historic district for the traditional Buddhist ceremony.
The general, better know as Seh Daeng or Commander Red, had been a key supporter of the lengthy anti-government protests in the capital.
He was shot in the head from a distance on Thursday by an unknown attacker, while being interviewed by the New York Times.
He was taken to hospital in a critical condition but went into a coma from which he never recovered.
The red-shirts have accused the government of assassinating the 58-year-old, who was suspended from the army in January. Officials have strongly denied the charge.
Seh Daeng saw himself as an advisor to the red-shirts - in the days before he was shot he was instructing them on defence tactics and how to construct their barriers in place around the city.
He was revered as a folk hero by many in the red-shirt movement, but he also angered some of its leaders, who tried to distance themselves from him.
His shooting ignited fierce fighting on the streets of the capital - at least 36 people have been killed and more than 250 wounded since the attack in violence which shows little sign of abating.
