The Kiev State Ballet School has refused to accept money raised by Moscow's Bolshoi Theatre after it emerged the star dancer at a charity gala had supported the annexation of Crimea.

A European court on Thursday ordered Russia to pay damages for putting defendants in metal cages in court, a practice it condemned as "degrading treatment." The enclosures have held opposition figures, Greenpeace activists and untold numbers of less-prominent suspects across the country.

A Bolshoi star dancer and two other men on Tuesday were convicted in an acid attack on the ballet's director that exposed vicious backstage bickering and intrigue at the renowned theater.

The Russian culture ministry on Tuesday fired the director general of the famed Bolshoi Theater that has been mired in scandal since an acid attack on its artistic director.

A Bolshoi Ballet dancer accused of organising an attack that nearly blinded the Russian theatre's artistic director said in court on Thursday that he did not intend for the victim to be splashed with acid.

A leading Bolshoi Ballet soloist and two other detained suspects have confessed to their involvement in the acid attack on the artistic director of world famous dance company Sergei Filin, Moscow police said on Wednesday.

Moscow police on Tuesday detained a suspect who allegedly splashed acid in the face of the artistic director of the Bolshoi ballet in an attack that shocked the world artistic community and left the troupe in crisis.

Russia's Bolshoi ballet on Friday postponed one of its most eagerly anticipated premieres of the year, a new version of Igor Stravinsky's "The Rite of Spring", after the acid attack on its artistic director Sergei Filin.

The artistic director of the Bolshoi Ballet will be sent to a hospital in Germany for further treatment and recovery after an acid attack that badly burned his face and endangered his eyesight, a Russian doctor was quoted as saying on Tuesday.

The Bolshoi ballet's artistic director underwent successful plastic surgery on Tuesday following a horrific acid attack that left the former dancer barely able to see the fingers on his hand.
