Russian Opposition Leader Convicted of Battery

A court in Ulyanovsk found opposition leader Sergei Udaltsov guilty of striking local student Anna Pozdnyakova. The judge has sentenced Udaltsov to 240 hours of public service. The criminal case was opened two months ago on a complaint from Pozdnyakova, who said Udaltsov stuck her during a rally in Ulyanovsk on April 21. It happened when she was asking him questions and photographed him with her mobile phone. According to the case records, she received a concussion and bruises. Udaltsov has denied the charges.
