A high-profile incident occurred in the Vatican at St. Peter’s Square when a half-naked activist from the international movement Femen climbed over the fence, stripped down to her waist, and attempted to steal a Jesus figurine from the Christmas display.
She was quickly detained by security personnel. The activist had a slogan written on her body calling for immediate action, and she was chanting slogans while attempting to remove the figurine. Police arrived at the scene and registered the violation, initiating further investigation.
Femen, known for their protests on various socio-political issues, have yet to reveal the potential legal consequences the activist may face, but the incident has already become a major event that has drawn attention to a serious problem.
