A Moscow court has freed
one of the convicted women from the punk band Pussy Riot but upheld
two-year jail terms for the other two.
There were cheers in court when the two-year jail term of Yekaterina Samutsevich (above), 30, was suspended.
The judges on Wednesday October 10, 2012 accepted the argument of Samutsevich's lawyer - that Samutsevich had been thrown out of the cathedral by guards before she could remove her guitar from its case for the band's "punk prayer".
The other band members cheered and hugged Samutsevich when the decision was read out. MORE HERE, HERE & HERE
