Posted Wednesday, May 23, 2012 by Dailymail

Topless activists from a Ukrainian women's rights group were arrested after grabbing the European Championship trophy while it was on public display in the southeast of the country.

Security guards moved in to stop Inna Shevchenko, 21, an activist in the Femen group, who  grabbed hold of the 60cm-high cup while it was being exhibited in a central square in Dnipropetrovsk.

As security guards moved in another activist, standing next to the cup, stripped off to the waist to display a slogan, saying 'F*** Euro 2012.'
