Tourists arrested for taking n*de photos at Machu Picchu

Authorities in Peru on Thursday arrested a pair of European tourists who had stripped naked to take photos at the Machu Picchu ruins, media reported.

Guards spotted the two men — a Briton and a Frenchman — after they removed their clothes to take nude photos with a cell phone, the Andina news agency reported, citing police.

They were taken to a police station and then to court, where they were charged with moral misconduct.
