Photo: ITAR-TASSConvicted members of the Pussy Riot group will re -apologize to believers in the Moscow City Court during the consideration of a cassation appeal against the sentence. This was announced by Publicpost by lawyer Nikolai Polozov. So Pussy Riot lawyer reacted to the statement of the chairman of the Synodal Information Department of the Russian Orthodox Church, Vladimir Legoyda, who called on the court to take into account the possible repentance of the members of the Pussy Riot group.
Consideration of the cassation appeal against the verdict of Maria Alekhina, Ekaterina Samutsevich and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova will be held in the Moscow City Court on October 1.
Pussy Riot about ethical error Three Pussy Riot participants received two years in a general regime colony for punk-summer punk, held in February 2012 in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. At the trial, the girls apologized to believers. “Our non-recognition of guilt does not mean that we are not ready to explain our actions and do not recognize our mistakes. The mistake is that we brought the musical genre to the temple, and if someone is offended, I am ready to admit that we made an ethical mistake,” said Nadezhda Tolononnikova in court . |
Nikolai Polozov, lawyer of the prisoner Maria Alekhina:
“The conversation about repentance was already earlier. There were negotiations with Father Vsevolod Chaplin that he would go to meet the girls, he agreed, but in the end he did not receive the blessings of the patriarch. All three girls already apologized. They recognized the ethical mistake publicly. They declared and continue to adhere to this opinion that their prayer was against Vladimir Putin Kirill, who introduces them. The church is spent with the state, whose feelings they could insult, what else should they do?
Pyotr Verzilov, husband of the concluded Nadezhda Tolokonnikova:
"By repentance, they mean tears and snot. It was to such a reaction that the authorities were counting immediately after the arrest. There was no such reaction and would not be. The girl already stated what they are regretting , but they will not repent like that."

Pussy Riot:
"It is not clear what the convicted members of the group should be repented. They did not want to offend anyone, they simply prayed in such a peculiar form. Moreover, they apologized to those whom they accidentally offended by their act."
Vladimir Legoyda, Chairman of the Synodal Information Department of the Moscow Patriarchate :
"The Russian Orthodox Church expressed its assessment of the decision in the case of the desecration of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, adopted by the court of first instance, in the correspondingstatement of the Supreme Church Council .
Once again, we repeat that such acts encroaching on the feelings of believers deserve condemnation and cannot remain unpunished, no matter how they try to justify them. This position is occupied by the vast majority of our fellow citizens.
At the same time, the Church sincerely wants the repentance of those who desecrate the holy place, being convinced that this will benefit their souls.
And since the purpose of the punishment is correction, then if some words of the convicts indicate repentance, the rethinking of the deeds, would like this not to be left without attention, and the transgressing the law would gain the opportunity to embark on the path of correction. "
