Russian security services have arrested the leader of the Ukrainian women’s movement FEMEN. Anna Hutsol was “taken” at St. Petersburg airport. The reasons are as yet unknown. This is reported on the internet version of “Ukrainian Pravda”. According to their information, documents and means of communication were seized from the detainee. Official confirmation of this has not been received.
Activists in the FEMEN group are known for a number of political protests, which they normally carry out half naked.

Aha! They’ve started grabbing foreigners. This is probably the Kremlin’s response to the passing of the Magnitsky law

She was clearly a serious thread to the Russian Orthodox Church

“known for a number of political protests”
Untrue. The truth is “arrogant, inept, absolutely shameless, ineffective self-promoting protests”

Sorry – the conversation here is about a foreign girl being arrested, and you’re just defending Putin again?

Instead of asking for her documents, did they ask her to show her tits?
