World‘My fear was too great’: Pussy Riot member says Russian spies recruited her to inform on activists

Rita Flores, a Russian artist, activist and former Pussy Riot member, says FSB officers coerced her into three years of cooperation through threats of criminal charges and harm to her mother. She says she was ordered to report on opposition-minded artists and eventually assist a plot to kidnap and murder a Kremlin enemy. The Guardian could not corroborate her account.
