An Anonymous Coward submitted the news that a Court ruled Church of Scientology Moscow branch should be 'dissolved':

A Russian court has ruled that the Moscow branch of the Church of Scientology should be dissolved.

The Moscow city court accepted the arguments of Russia's justice ministry that as the term "Scientology" is a registered US trademark, the Church cannot be considered a religious organisation.

The organisation plans to appeal, reports said.

The controversial church is based in Los Angeles, California and was found in 1954 by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard.
