The Witch Hunt Against Pussy Riot

In an opinion editorial in The Moscow Times, Victor Davidoff, a Moscow-based writer and journalist, says the indictment against the controversial rock group, “Pussy Riot”, wouldn't have raised eyebrows if it had been written by a 16th-century court during the Inquisition. But in the 21st century, it is shocking. The outcome of the Pussy Riot court case is hard to predict, but it will be a good indicator of which time period Russia will live in - the age of Internet or the age of witch hunts.
