Three French tourists in their early twenties have been arrested by Cambodian authorities for taking nude photos of each other inside the country’s famed Angkor temple complex, officials said Friday.
官員週五表示,法國3名20歲出頭的觀光客,因為在柬埔寨知名的吳哥神殿區內互相拍攝裸照,遭柬埔寨當局逮捕。
The male tourists were discovered inside the Banteay Kdei temple at the world heritage site on Thursday, Chau Sun Kerya, spokeswoman for the Apsara Authority -- the government agency managing the Angkor complex -- told AFP. "The temple is a worship site and their behaviour is inappropriate. They were nude," she said.

Keat Bunthan, a senior heritage police official in northwestern Siem Reap province, confirmed the nationalities of the arrested and said many Cambodians would be offended by the tourists’ actions.
柬埔寨西北部暹粒省的資深遺產警官Keat Bunthan,證實被捕遊客的國籍,並表示這些遊客的行為冒犯許多柬埔寨人。
"Their activities affect our culture. Nobody should take nude pictures at ancient temples," he told AFP.
他告訴法新社:「他們的行為影響我們的文化。任何人都不應該在一座古寺裡拍裸照。」
