Hmmmm…. Ukranian feminist group protesting arrests and claim that the police planted guns and explosives and other incriminating evidence.

Ukrainian topless feminist group Femen accused the police of planting explosives and a gun during a raid on their headquarters in Kiev headquarters on Tuesday in a bid to close their organization down.

The Femen group specializes in shock bare-breast appearances to dramatize women’s rights causes, mainly in the male-dominated hierarchies of Russia and its former Soviet allies.

Russia’s Vladimir Putin has particularly been a target for Femen’s protests since the prosecution of the Russian female punk group Pussy Riot last year.

A police statement in Kiev said a group of explosives experts were sent to Femen’s headquarters in central Kiev on Tuesday after an anonymous call. Objects resembling a World War Two pistol and grenade were found during a search, it said.

Officers at the scene said they had also found leaflets showing the profiles of Putin and Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill pictured in snipers’ cross-hairs.

Something about this doesn’t quite pass the smell test.
