According to a post on Pussy Riot’s Twitter, the charge can bring up to 10 days in prison. our 4 activists (nika nikulshina, olya pahtusova, olya kuracheva, petya verzilov) are arrested again and brought to the police station; they're charged with article "20.2.2" - "the organization and holding of public events without prior written notice’ - up to 10 days of arrest.— 𝖕𝖚𝖘𝖘𝖞 𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖙 (@pussyrrriot) July 30, 2018 Olga Pakhtusova, Veronika “Nika” Nikulshina, Olga Kuracheva, and Petya Verzilov had been held for 15 days of “administrative arrest” after taking to the World Cup field in old fashioned police uniforms on July 15. In the interim, they’ve shared multiple new songs, including “Track about Good Cop”, which references aggressive and oppressive policing. They have also released a list of demands to the Russian government: “Let all political prisoners free; Not imprison for ‘likes’; stop illegal arrests on rallies; allow political competition in the country; and not fabricate criminal accusations and not keep people in jails for no reason”. Despite their unpleasant – and frankly dangerous – position in custody, the Pussy Riot members have been maintaining a brave face, as shown in their tweets below. after 15 days of arrest our girls ended up in the police station till the morningthey're laughing and singing songs about freedom tho https://t.co/TQ35f1IXTy— 𝖕𝖚𝖘𝖘𝖞 𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖙 (@pussyrrriot) July 30, 2018olya's face when cops are saying her that she's detained AGAIN pic.twitter.com/hckVqMe1VM— 𝖕𝖚𝖘𝖘𝖞 𝖗𝖎𝖔𝖙 (@pussyrrriot) July 30, 2018Expand your creative community and connect with 15,000 creatives from around the world.READ MORE‘No more DOGE’: New York’s Tesla protesters send a message to MuskHow the US election is dividing young leftistsVanmoofDJ Fuckoff’s guide to living, creating and belonging in BerlinThe best memes about Donald Trump’s guilty verdict The Tories are trying to stop young people from voting Climate Crisis: Why migrant justice is now more important than everWhy this UAL grad wants her tuition fees refundedUK university students now can’t afford to eatWatch out, people who use drugs: Priti Patel wants to steal your passportWhat would happen if we all just stopped paying our bills?‘It’s apocalyptic’: young climate activists on the UK heatwave‘I’ll be voting for anyone but them’: why young Tories are jumping ship
