A Moscow court has arrested a third member of the punk band "Pussy Riot" today on hooliganism charges.
Irina Loktina, who had earlier acted as a witness in this case, will remain in jail until April 24.
Later she was identified as one a participant in the protest performance at Christ the Savior Cathedral.
Three weeks ago, the group stormed the church wearing masks. They played an anti-Putin song called "Punk prayer."
Of the five women who took part, three have been identified and charged with hooliganism. They now face up to seven years in jail.
