Breaking News UK: Russian punk band members detained by police in Sochi

By Mike Collett-White SOCHI, Russia (Reuters) – Pussy Riot protest band members Maria Alyokhina and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova said they were detained on suspicion of theft in the Winter Olympics host city of Sochi on Tuesday, less than two months after their release from prison under an amnesty. President Vladimir Putin has staked his reputation on the Sochi Games, hoping they would show the world Russia's modern face more than two decades after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The women were in Sochi with other members of Pussy Riot to record a musical film called "Putin will teach you to love the motherland". Alyokhina, 25, said they and others detained with them were being questioned without lawyers present, and Tolokonnikova said that police had used violence during questioning inside the police station.
