Pussy Riot Have Been Charged Over Their World Cup Final Pitch Invasion
They're accused of violating the rules for spectators at sporting events, and of wearing police uniforms illegally.
After Russian feminist protest punks Pussy Riot claimed to have disrupted the World Cup final yesterday by running onto the football pitch, authorities have reportedly charged four members of the band.
The group – who interrupted yesterday's France vs. Croatia game to protest against human rights abuses in Russia – are accused of violating the rules for spectators at sporting events (which carries a fine of 10,000 roubles, which is roughly £121), and of wearing police uniforms illegally (which carries a maximum fine of 1,500 roubles, which is around £18). They could either face this penalty, or 160 hours of community service.
