Tunisian Femen activist Amina Tyler has been arrested in the city of Kairouan, 150km south of Tunis, after staging a protest outside a mosque during violent clashes between police and hardline Islamists.
Police took the member of radical feminist movement into custody after she spraypainted the Femen name on a wall outside the Great Mosque of Kairouan, also known as Oqba ibn Nafa mosque.
"Amina continued the anti-Islamist campaign of Femen for freedom for women in the very heart of the sharia stronghold," Femen said.
A video posted online by Femen depicts Amina talking to police and passersby outside the mosque before being taken away in a police van. Full story...
