Daring: As security moved in on one of the group, another activist, standing next to the cup, stripped off to the waist
Femen activists staged a similar protest in Kiev earlier this month, seizing hold of the same cup while it was on public display in the capital.
Organisers said the latest stunt was carried out by a 46-year-old French journalist from a French women's magazine.
'She also supports our struggle against sexism and prostitution and decided to take part,' said Femen spokeswoman Anna Hutsol. Both women were detained by police.
