Pussy Riot member Rita Flores was arrested “for no damn reason”, she says
A Moscow court ruled on Monday that Rita Flores, a Pussy Riot member who was diagnosed with Covid-19 while serving one of a string of recent jail sentences in Moscow against members of the feminist political protest collective, will have to return to prison after being released from hospital.
The judge ruled that Flores’s sentence is suspended for her hospitalisation, but she will have to serve another five days and 21 hours, her lawyer told the official Tass news agency. Flores (a pseudonym for Margarita Konovalova), was jailed on 22 July for disobeying a police officer, a day after being detained while on her way to visit Pussy Riot’s Masha Alekhina, who was in a detention centre serving the second of consecutive 15-day sentences.
