Anti-Putin punk rockers face trial in Moscow

2012-09-03 12

Three members of a Russian punk group are to face trial on Monday.

They have been officially charged with "hooliganism on the grounds of religious hatred".

The charges were handed down after the trio made their way into a church and burst into a so-called "punk prayer" criticising Russian President Vladimir Putin.
