Polish Couple Arrested in Thailand for Hugging, Walking Around in Public Completely Nude - WORLD OF BUZZ

  • A Polish couple, Michal and Claudia , were arrested on April 29 for public nudity on Koh Phangan, Thailand, after being seen naked in public twice.
  • Their behavior, which included embracing naked on a public road and sunbathing nude on a family beach, prompted locals to notify police and sparked outrage due to rising tourist misconduct.
  • Police officers arrived, ordered the couple to cover up, and arrested them under Thai law banning public indecency, later taking them to the Koh Phangan Police Station for further proceedings.
  • Authorities fined Claudia 5,000 baht after her confession and sent Michal for a psychiatric exam while requesting immigration to revoke their visas; locals called for stricter actions to protect the area’s cultural norms.
  • This incident highlights growing local impatience with unruly tourist behavior and may increase enforcement against public obscenity to preserve communal sanctity on Thai tourist islands.
