...Seven Russian anarchists and anti-fascist activists have been handed lengthy jail terms on terror charges.

...A court in the city of Penza sentenced the men - said to be part of a group known as Set, meaning Network - to between six and 18 years in penal colonies.

...Prominent opposition figure Alexei Navalny described the sentences as "Horrific" in a tweet, and called the Set group a "Fictitious terrorist organisation".

...The seven are part of a group of at least 10 in Penza and St Petersburg arrested and charged with membership of the so-called Set group.
