Femen activists cleared after Notre Dame protest in Paris
- 10 years ago
In France, nine Femen activists have been acquitted over a topless protest at Notre Dame cathedral in Paris last year.
They had been accused of degrading a place of worship as they celebrated former Pope Benedict’s resignation.
Three security guards who tackled them were given suspended fines.
The protest came as France was hotly debating same-sex marriage.
