Two events defined this issue: The anti-racist protests of the Black Lives Matter movement and the arrest of Peter Verzilov, a member of the collective and who is accused of causing riots during the protests in Russia.
“On June 21, at 7 am Moscow time, 20 policemen knocked down Peter Verzilov's door in Pussy Riot with a saw. Peter's electronic devices and documents were seized which allegedly "confirmed his involvement in the organization of the riots." We don't know the details of the criminal case yet, but Peter is currently being held by the court for 15 days on an absurd charge of 'small-scale vandalism'. ”
