Indian police arrested a French woman after filming nude videos on a sacred bridge in the city of Rishikesh.
The AFP news agency reported on Monday (31 August) that the video taken on the bridge was even posted on social media.
The suspension bridge over the Ganges is known to be a very popular spot for tourists.
The woman has also violated internet rules in India and could be sentenced to up to three years in prison if convicted.
The woman was later released on bail and she told police the video was made to promote her jewelry business.
“Maybe in France things like this are not considered objectionable. But Rishikesh is a holy place and Lakshman Jhula is where (Hindu god) Ram, his brother Lakshman and his wife Sita cross the Ganges, “regional police chief Rk Saklani told AFP.
