Pussy Riot Ordered By Russian Court To Remove Their Performance Videos From Web

In this Feb. 21, 2012 file photo, members of the Russian radical feminist group Pussy Riot try to perform at the Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Moscow. A Moscow court on Thursday Nov. 29, 2012 ruled that the video of punk band Pussy Riot’s performance in Russia’s main cathedral is extremist and ordered it to be removed from the web. Moscow’s Zamoskvoretsky court banned the video of the group’s February performance, ordering it and three other videos to be removed from all websites. Prosecutors began looking into the Pussy Riot videos after a conservative member of parliament suggested that they insulted believers. <AP Photo/Sergey Ponomarev, File>
