MOSCOW (Reuters) - Four members of Russia's Pussy Riot protest group who were jailed for 15 days for staging a pitch invasion during the football World Cup final were detained again after their release on Monday and were held overnight, their lawyer said on Tuesday.
The members of the group face new charges of staging a public event without having prior permission, an offence that carries a jail sentence of up to 10 days or a fine of up to 30,000 rubles (£365.8), Russian news agencies reported.
