Pussy Riot, the Russian band jailed after mocking the Kremlin, has released a first English-language song that takes aim not at Vladimir Putin but at US police brutality. The feminist punk group, which enjoyed considerable support in the United States when on trial in Russia, dedicated the song to Eric Garner -- whose death at the hands of New York police triggered major protests. & quot;It & #039;s getting dark in New York City... I need to catch my breath, & quot; runs the song & #039;s refrain. Pussy Riot said it saw a connection between the death of Garner -- one of a number of unarmed African Americans whose recent killings by police have triggered outrage -- and the strong-armed impulses of Putin.
