印度圣湖边接吻赤裸都违法
JAIPUR, India (Reuters) - Indian police have brought charges against a Finnish tourist for bathing naked in a holy lake in a Hindu pilgrim town, a police officer said on Monday%26#46;
Police said the tourist walked to her hotel in the nude after taking a dip in the lake in Pushkar in the desert state of Rajasthan Saturday, angering several local people and priests%26#46;
"We have framed charges of indecency against the lady tourist from Finland under section 294 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC)," Sugan Singh, a police officer in Pushkar, told Reuters%26#46;
Under India's obscenity laws, the tourist can be imprisoned for three months or pay a fine%26#46;
Pushkar has a famous temple dedicated to Brahma -- the Hindu god of creation -- and is popular with foreign tourists who come for its desert ambience, camel safaris and annual camel fair%26#46;
Last month, an Israeli couple was fined 1,000 rupees after an Indian court found them guilty of obscenity for kissing during their marriage ceremony in Pushkar%26#46;
India has tough obscenity laws and kissing in public is frowned upon in the largely conservative country%26#46; Last October, local residents in the western state complained to authorities that a group of Israeli women had danced naked near Pushkar%26#46;
