A Russian court has denied her the right of an early release. Maria Alekhina has served a year and a half out of her two-year prison sentence and was appealing for parole. Along with two other band members, Alekhina was convicted of hooliganism following Pussy Riot’s punk performance against President Vladimir Putin last year.
