Russian - Supporters of Russia's Sergei Udaltsov gathering in Moscow in protest over the jailing

http://www.euronews.net/ Supporters of Russia's opposition have been gathering in Moscow in protest over the jailing of one of their leaders.

Their anger follows the latest sentence handed down to Sergei Udaltsov, who was jailed for an extra 10 days on 25 December. Over the past year he has spent more than three months behind bars, sometimes going on hunger strike.

More than 2,000 people signed up for the rally via Facebook, and hundreds are reported to have turned up.
