Free the prisoners of conscience

for March 5, 2012 at Pushkin Square

Nadezhda Nizovkina and Tatyana Stetzura are prisoned as manifestants for fair elections. They are from an old small group Demokratichesky Soyuz ("Democratic Union").

Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Mariya Alyokhina are prisoned as suspected musicians of the Pussy Riot punk group which flash-performed an anti-Putin rap at the Red Square and a spiritual "Hail Virgin Mary Make Putin go away" at the Christ Saviour Cathedral.

Taisiya Osipova is prisoned as a wife of an oppositioner from Drugaya Rossiya (The Other Russia), a new small group manifesting for the right to manifest. This right is guaranteed by the Constitution article 31, so they manifest on 31th day of every 31-days month, even on December 31. Their manifestation are not large (well under 1000 participants) and always arrested by the police.
