Police officers detain one of the activists of Ukrainian group Femen trying to protest at a polling station in Moscow, March 4, 2012, shortly after Russia's Prime Minister and presidential candidate Vladimir Putin cast his ballot. The sign on the girl reads: 'I steal for Putin!' The slogan refers to the term 'party of crooks and thieves' to describe Vladimir Putin's United Russia party. Russians voted today in presidential polls expected to return Putin to the Kremlin for a record third term, despite a wave of protests against his 12 years of domination. Getty
