The administration of Facebook has deleted the account of FEMEN International that had more than 80,000 subscribers.

"For the first time, the Facebook administration accused FEMEN in 'propagation of pornography'; this time it didn't explain the reason," the statement published on FEMEN's website says.

FEMEN's representatives think that the administration of Facebook has decided to do this as a result of the growing popularity of "the international movement against censorship of women's breasts on the Internet."

Paris has granted political asylum to the leader of the notorious feminist movement Femen in France, Le Figaro reports.

The Ukrainian citizen Inna Shevchenko, who now lives in France, told journalists she has recently had her asylum plea supported by the French government. The request is reportedly dated February 2013.

The French leader of bare-breasted activists for women’s rights said the move to ask for France’s protection was “strategic.”

“To extend our reach we need a country that would act as our base,” she explained.

Paris has not yet commented on asylum for Ms Shevchenko, saying it did not wish to expand on confidential data.

Ms. Tyler was put behind bars after reportedly writing "Femen" on a wall in the religious centre of Kairouan. She previously caused an outrage among some Tunisians by posting photos of herself top-less with the slogan "my body is my own personal" written on her behalf torso.

Tunisia has recently seen an increase in the prominence of ultra-conservative Islamists known as Salafists, who campaign for greater public piety in the country, following the ouster of secularist Ben Ali.
