 The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has condemned Russia for its handling of two high-profile cases. 
  
 It said Russia had violated five articles of the human rights convention in its arrest and conviction of Pussy Riot members in 2012. 
  
 Three women from the activist group were arrested after performing a protest song in a Moscow cathedral. 
  
 Separately, the ECHR also heavily criticised the investigation into journalist Anna Politkovskaya's murder. 
  
 Politkovskaya was shot dead in a lift in her block of flats in 2006. Five men were found guilty of her murder in 2014, although it is still not known who commissioned the assassination. 
  
 The investigative reporter was a vocal critic of Russia's war in Chechnya, and of Russian President Vladimir Putin. 
  
 Russia had failed to "take adequate investigatory steps" to find who commissioned the murder, violating Article 2 of the convention, the court said. 
  
 In 2015, Russia's parliament passed a law allowing it to overrule judgements from the ECHR after the court ruled against the country for state spying. 
  
 'Multiple violations' 
  
 In the Pussy Riot case, two band members served 16 months in prison after their conviction. 
  
 Formed in 2011, the group has a varying membership of women who support feminism and agitate against President Putin and the state. 
  
 On Monday, Russia jailed four members of the band for disrupting the World Cup Final with a pitch invasion.

 The court ruled that Russia had committed "multiple violations" of the European Convention during the three band members' arrests and sentencing in 2012. 
  
 The ECHR highlighted the band's "overcrowded conditions" when being transported to and from court, and the "humiliation" of their exposure in a glass dock during the trial as a breach of Article 3 of the convention. 
  
 Pussy Riot's extended detention before trial and lack of access to their lawyers also broke the convention, it added. 
  
 Moreover, the ECHR said the Russian court twice violated Article 10 - freedom of expression - by banning access to the group's videos online and for condemning the group's conduct and clothing, rather than examining the content of their protest song, during the trial.

 Russia arrested Maria Alyokhina, Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Yekaterina Samutsevich in February 2012 after they performed their song Punk Prayer - Virgin Mary, Drive Putin Away in Moscow's Christ the Saviour Cathedral. 
  
 Guards managed to remove the band after only about a minute of the song. 
  
 During their conviction, the judge said the three had committed "hooliganism" and showed "a complete lack of respect" for Orthodox believers. 
  
 All three were sentenced to two years in prison. Ms Alyokhina and Ms Tolokonnikova served 16 months, while Ms Samutsevich was released and had her sentence suspended after seven months in prison. 
  
 After their release, Pussy Riot publicly disowned Ms Alyokhina and Ms Tolokonnikova, saying the pair had forgotten the "aspirations and ideals of our group". ||||| The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) ruled on Tuesday to award 37,000 euros ($43,500) in damages to members of the anti-Kremlin Pussy Riot punk rock group, who were jailed for two years over a controversial performance in a church. 
  
 The high-profile trio was convicted in 2012 on charges of hooliganism for a performance denouncing President Vladimir Putin at Moscow’s Christ the Savior Cathedral, prompting a backlash from activists around the world. The group burst into headlines this week for a pitch invasion protest during the World Cup final at Luzhniki Stadium on Sunday. ||||| Four members of Pussy Riot were sentenced to 15 days in jail for participating in a dramatic on-field protest during the World Cup final at Luzhniki Stadium in Moscow on Sunday.

 In a post published on the group's official Facebook page, the members claimed responsibility for the protest, explained the significance behind the police imagery and included a list of demands. 
  
 "Today is 11 years since the death of the great Russian poet, Dmitriy Prigov. Prigov created an image of a policeman, a carrier of the heavenly nationhood, in the russian culture," the group wrote. "...The heavenly policeman rises as an example of the nationhood, the earthly policeman hurts everyone...The FIFA World Cup has reminded us of the possibilities of the heavenly policeman in the Great Russia of the future, but the earthly policeman, entering the ruleless game breaks our world apart." 
  
 In their Facebook post on Sunday, the groups demands included letting "all political prisoners free," "all political competition in the country," and to "stop illegal arrests on rallies." 
  
 Pussy Riot has been fiercely critical of Putin's government. The group was launched into the international spotlight in 2012 when three of its original members were charged with hooliganism and sentenced to two years in prison for performing the anti-Putin protest song "Punk Prayer" at a Moscow cathedral. 
  
 Yekaterina Samutsevich's sentence was suspended on appeal, but Nadya Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina remained in prison until December 2013. 
  
 After their release, the activists founded an independent media outlet that advocates for political prisoners and have continued to speak out against Putin and other leaders, including Trump and British Prime Minister Theresa May. 
  
 "We've seen the authoritarian tendencies is parading all around the world as sexually transmitted diseases, and we think it's time to make connection," Tolokonnikova told CNN in August 2017. "It's time to create global people's movement if we want to find an alternative to this raid of populism, which we've seen in my own country, Russia and in America too, Donald Trump, and in the UK, which ended up in Brexit." |||||
Output:

Veronika Nikulshina, Olga Kuracheva, Olga Pakhtusova, and Petya Verzilov also are banned from attending sporting events for three years, reports ABC News. The four took advantage of the world spotlight and disrupted the game to protest Vladimir Putin's policies and to demand the release of political prisoners. Among the offenses that factored into the sentencing: The protesters wore police uniforms during the stunt. Meanwhile, the European Court of Human Rights awarded $43,500 to the group over the prison sentences members received for their now-famous protest performance at a church in 2012, reports the Moscow Times. “Domestic courts had failed to justify why it had been necessary to convict and sentence the applicants to terms of imprisonment,” the ECHR said in a release. Two members served 16 months in prison. The anti-Kremlin group formed in 2011 and has featured various members ever since, notes the BBC.
