Flashermac Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 Angry German tourist drops pants at airport X-ray machine 11 Feb 2007 MANILA, Philippines (AP) - A 66-year-old German tourist, annoyed by stringent security at Manila's airport, dropped his pants before walking through an X-ray machine, newspapers said Monday. Authorities were not amused. Instead of boarding a flight to Frankfurt on Friday, Hans Jurgen Oskar von Naguschewski was detained after police filed a complaint of lasciviousness against him, the Philippine Daily Inquirer and the Philippine Star newspapers reported. "He must have been annoyed that he was asked to walk through the X-ray twice, so he took off his pants," airport security chief Angel Atutubo was quoted saying. Oskar spent the weekend in police detention and was to face the prosecutor later Monday. If convicted, he could face six months to six years in jail. "He actually didn't say much, unlike Filipino passengers who would talk a lot. He was clearly irked and he showed it by disrobing," the Inquirer quoted police Supt. Atilano Morada saying.

Julian2 Posted February 12, 2007 Report Share Posted February 12, 2007 He should holiday in Estonia from now on. Countries like the PI, Thailand et al are not for those who expect things to run with Germanic efficiency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
