Overview
- Russia’s Investigative Committee charged Tolokonnikova with violating the “foreign agent” law and placed her on the federal wanted list.
- Court records say she posted on a messaging app without labeling the content as produced by a registered foreign agent, as the statute requires.
- Prosecutors cite Article 330.1 Part 2 of the criminal code, which allows up to two years in prison for failures to register or to mark posts.
- She was designated a “foreign agent” in December 2021 and was twice found guilty of administrative violations of those rules in 2024.
- Pussy Riot says it recently protested at Ubiquiti’s New York office over alleged military use of its gear, and the group reports its Square account was then deactivated.
