A young Tunisian activist who sparked controversy in March by posting topless pictures of herself online has been arrested for allegedly making “immoral gestures,” the interior ministry said on Monday.

“The young girl was placed under arrest yesterday (Sunday) in Kairouan… because of immoral gestures,” ministry spokesman Mohamed Ali Aroui told a news conference, without elaborating.

“Our society is Muslim and we do not accept this marginal behaviour,” he said.

In videos posted on the Internet, the activist known by the pseudonym of Amina Tyler was in Kairouan where Salafist group Ansar al-Sharia was to have held a congress on Sunday that was prevented by security forces.

The teenager is seen having painted the word “Femen” on a wall near the mosque which was to have been the venue for the gathering.
