6 charged for nude dance show
[Straits Times] INDONESIAN prosecutors charged six people on Thursday under the country's anti-pornography law for allegedly putting on a nude dance show at a bar in the early hours of New Year's Day.The four female dancers, the show promoter and bar manager face up to five years in jail if convicted, prosecutor Dodi Junaidi told AFP. 'They're charged under the anti-pornography law on suspicion of displaying a nude dance,' he added, without giving details. The six suspects appeared at a closed-door trial held at the Bandung district court south of Jakarta. The controversial anti-pornography law, which came into effect in October 2008, carries a maximum jail sentence of 15 years. The law criminalises all works and 'bodily movements' deemed obscene and capable of violating public morality. Posted by: Fred 2010-03-05 |
