Last Friday, Americans Lindsey Adams, 22, and her 20-year-old sister Leslie visited the Preah Khan temple where "They lowered their pants to their knees and took pictures of their buttocks," Keat Bunthan, a senior heritage police official told Channel News Asia.
According to the Asian Correspondent, the duo has since been deported from the country after receiving six-month suspended sentences and $244 fines. They are barred from reentering Cambodia for four years.
The incident comes a week after a similar episode wherein three French men were deported for taking nude photos at the same temple complex, perhaps for a sexy calendar.
“They said their goal was to take nude photos to keep as souvenirs, but we believe that their intention was to use the photos in publications such as a calendar,” Prosecutor Koeut Sovannareth told the AFP at the time.
And let’s not forget the three Europeans who rode naked through the Cambodian countryside last month.
