Pussy Riot claim responsibility for intrusion into football ground during FIFA WC final

In the early part of the second half of France-Croatia match, the referee was compelled to suspend the course of the game for a while as few women- dressed in black trousers, white shirts and black ties- entered the field.

Later, in a video, which has been shared by The Guardian on Youtube, the members of Pussy Riot out-poured their anger against the Russian administration.

They said: "Dear friend, perhaps you know that there is no rule of law in Russia and any policeman may easily break into your life for no reason."

The group even claimed the Russian policemen's "good" behaviour during the World Cup will end once the tournament concludes.

"FIFA World Cup demonstrated really well how good Russian policemen may behave. But what will happen once it ends? The conclusion and the solution is the only one: you should fight for preventing fabrication of criminal accusations and arresting people for no reason."

In the last part of the video, Pussy Riot even alleged that there is no scope for everyone to contest elections in the country.

The group said: "In order for this to happen you need one thing called political competition. A possibility to participate in your own country's life and be elected. For everyone. All this are very simple things. But you should decide for yourself what you personally can do so that your Russia would become much more beautiful."

When Pussy Riot members stormed into the field, incidentally, Russian President Vladimir Putin was present at the Luzhniki stadium to watch the final match.

French striker Kylian Mbappe was even seen giving a high five to one of the women of the activist group.

Pussy Riot is a musical group based in Moscow.
