A former stripper who wants to run for the French presidential election was arrested for parading topless in the street to promote transparency.
Cindy Lee, 52, who is the candidate for the Pleasure Party in France, was handing out pamphlets and talking to voters while she was wearing just a pair of hotpants and tassels covering each nipple.
But her desire to shine a light on what she described as corruption in French politics did not go well, as she was arrested by 30 riot police officers who had mistaken her for a radical feminist activist.
The potential presidential candidate stripped down and talked to LCI surrounded by her supporters.
She said: 'We are here to demand transparency when it comes to corruption, and this outfit justifies transparency
As well as talking to the local press, she stopped motorists to hand out her manifesto, which includes pumping money into projects to help residents enjoy a more fulfilled sex life.
Her effort to gain support was cut short just as she was getting into the groove of her campaigning when 30 riot police officers led her away.
They wrongly thought she was associated to the Femen movement, which regularly holds topless protest against the exploitation of women that invariably result in those taking part being detained.
