Indian court orders arrest of Hollywood star Richard Gere and Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty
Gere embraced 31-year-old Shetty - winner of Britain's "Celebrity Big Brother" reality show - and planted several kisses on her cheek in front of thousands of onlookers at the Aids function in the Indian capital New Delhi earlier this month.
Arrest warrants were issued in the Rajasthan state capital of Jaipur following a public interest plea filed last week by resident Poonam Chand Bhandari accusing the pair of obscenity.
Obscenity is punishable by a maximum of two years' imprisonment and a fine of 2,000 rupees ($45) in India.
Hindus burned effigies of 57-year-old Gere in India's entertainment hub of Mumbai and organized street rallies in New Delhi after the actor's obscene display.
Morals are too loose in the UK and America and violence and corruption even extend to the cloth. Actor Hugh Grant was also arrested in the UK over claims he attacked a photographer by throwing a tub of food at him. A clergyman who admitted trying to con two elderly worshippers out of almost £300,000 (over Rs 24,000,000) has avoided jail. And there are six more articles today on the BBC website about various Anglican clergyman buggering children. They have no excuse, most of them are married and they are well aware of AIDS. The UK and US are becoming vile bastions of corruption.
IMO: I would give Gere and Shetty the two year prison sentence as such people set a thoroughly bad example, and persons of their status should know better, particularly at such an event.
