Prosecutors demand guilty verdict for Moscow 2012 rioters
Over 400 people were arrested and scores injured in the Bolotnaya Square protest that turned violent on the eve of Vladimir Putin's inauguration to a third presidential term in May 2012. Dozens were later charged with inciting mass riots and using violence against law enforcement officers. Prosecutors have demanded to find eight remaining defendants in the 2012 Bolotnaya riots case guilty of participating in the riots and assaulting the police.
The Arctic Sunrise hearing at the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea
On October 21, 2013, the Netherlands filed a request with the Hamburg-based International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea to inflict provisional measures in the dispute over Dutch-flagged Greenpeace vessel Arctic Sunrise. The vessel was seized by Russian border guards on September 19, a day after two Greenpeace activists scaled a drilling rig in the Pechora Sea, the southeastern part of the Barents Sea. The Netherlands is demanding the release of the ship and its crew and the withdrawal of hooliganism charges against the 30 crew members.
