During the
music festival “Veganfest” in Moscow,
two members of the group “Makulatura”, who performed a song about Putin, were
arrested.
Evgeni Alikhin and Konstantin
Strokolski were blamed hooliganism.
According to one of the
versions, they were arrested after calling policemen “Rubbish”. But the second
version says that they mentioned Vladimir Putin and the ruling party “United
Russia” (“Edinoe Rosia”) in a “bad way” in the song.
Last year police raided
concert of the popular rock band “Psikhea” in Yekaterinburg on the grounds that
the event was unauthorized and the calls to murder were heard there. Such a
conclusion was made by the police from the text of the song “Kill the ments”.
Three member girls of the
punk-band “Ghash Riot” have also been detained for a song about Putin and for
abuse of the Holy
Church.
