Nude protest group Femen reports that three of its members were stripped, oiled and left naked in a forest after Belarus police objected to their latest protest and decided to abduct them in retaliation.
The Femen trio were toplessly protesting the Soviet-style dictatorship of Belarussian president Alexander Lukashenko, widely accused of having rigged his country’s latest election massively in his favour, demanding that political prisoners be freed.
Minsk police took a dim view of this and abducted them, after which they were blindfolded and taken to a remote forest, allege Femen.
There they were made to strip, doused with oil and threatened with being set alight. For good measure police cut their hair with a knife and took care to film the whole incident.
They were left naked but unharmed in the forest, and managed to find their way to a small village and thence to safety.
Police also apparently arrested a number of journalists for daring to cover their protest.
Belarussian authorities dismissed the protest as “a provocation” and did not comment on the alleged kidnapping. The Ukrainian government says it has dispatched a diplomat to investigate.
Femen’s Ukrainian protests usually end with them being arrested and bundled in police vans, all of which has been widely photographed. However, this is the first time they have made any accusation of completely illegal treatment.
The protest in question, which may be upsetting to some:
I see why this is called a protest
This accusation is actually rather common with Feminist groups like these (i.e. radical), or any group of people calling themselves “Feminists”. Several times Feminists will accuse someone or something for a false crime that never occurred to gain publicity and media attention. Remember Strauss-Kahn? Prime example right there. Or maybe you might wanna search up Mary Kellett, a rather corrupt prosecutor who convicted men of false r♥♥e charges (who, thankfully, is not practicing law anymore via disbarment). I would take this story with a grain of salt until more is said on the issue, but I doubt it’s remotely true.
NOTE: I am not saying all Feminists are like this. But not once have I met a Feminist who even followed/believed Femen’s ways or principles, and this is common practice among nutty Feminists/Feminist-influenced people.
Why would you say something like this?
CANNOT UNSEE!
what’s wrong with ukranian women?
I lol. I thought Sankaku is supposed to blog only about stuff related to Japan/Asia or the Otaku culture.
Bitching about Belarus is already political bias. Gz.
