| Subject: Femen founders leave Ukraine 'fearing for their lives' Sun Sep 01, 2013 12:27 am | |
| Three founders of Femen said Saturday they had left Ukraine in fear for their lives after police discovered weapons in their Kiev offices that the feminist group says were planted.
Alexandra Shevchenko, Anna Hutsol and Yana Zhdanova "have fled Ukraine fearing for their lives and for their liberty" and would "continue their activities in Europe", said a statement on the group's website.
The three women decided to leave after Ukrainian police called them in for questioning on Friday, the statement said.
The group, known for its topless political protests, is facing a criminal investigation after police said they confiscated a TT handgun and a grenade from its offices in central Kiev on Tuesday.
