Russian opposition leader and chess legend Garry Kasparov has been arrested after scuffling with riot police during a protest.

The arrest comes a week ahead of legislative elections.

According to AFP journalists, Mr Kasparov and one of his bodyguards were grabbed by riot police and forced into a police bus.

The bus then drove them away from the scene, where hundreds of opposition activists were in a tense stand-off with security forces.

"Freedom! Freedom!" supporters shouted as the bus left the scene.
