O fostă membră Pussy Riot spune că a fost recrutată de FSB
Rita Flores, a former Pussy Riot member, claims she was recruited by the FSB in 2023 to gather information on artists and political activists. After a police raid on her home, she was threatened with legal action and harm to her family, leading her to cooperate with the FSB. Her tasks included creating profiles on contemporary artists, and she was offered financial compensation for her work. One significant mission involved attempting to capture Piotr Verzilov, for which she was promised substantial rewards. With the help of a lawyer, she managed to delay the operation and eventually left Russia.
