Lawyers for three members of the feminist punk group Pussy Riot are contesting their conviction in the European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg. The complaint filed Wednesday, Feb. 6, 2013, alleges the group’s conviction violates four articles of the European Convention on Human Rights guaranteeing freedom of speech, the right to liberty and security, the prohibition of torture, and the right to a fair trial.
