Bangkok photo: US tourists held for baring buttocks at Thai temple
 [BBC] Two US citizens are being held in Thailand after they posted an online picture of themselves posing with their buttocks exposed at a temple.The tourists had taken the picture at Bangkok's famous Wat Arun temple and posted it on Twitter and Instagram. Immigration authorities told the BBC the pair, Joseph and Travis Dasilva, both 38, would be fined and deported. Thailand has very strict laws on behaviour considered disrespectful and offensive to its Buddhist religion. The two tourists were held late on Tuesday when trying to leave the country at Bangkok's Don Mueang airport. Posted by: Besoeker 2017-11-30 |
