Caribbean Island Threatens Jail for Wearing Bathing Suits in Town
Original Post Date: 10th Jan, 2009 - 11:23pm
Watch out if you go to Grenada you could end up in jail for wearing your swimwear....
QUOTE ST. GEORGE'S, Grenada — Bikini- and Speedo-clad tourists beware.
The Caribbean island of Grenada says it recently began enforcing an indecent exposure law banning bathing suits away from the beach, as well as saggy pants that reveal the underwear.
Police commissioner James Clarkson says violators are usually just ordered to cover up. But the law allows for a $270 fine or six months in jail.
At least a few locals are contesting fines.
Clarkson said Friday that cruise ships usually inform passengers of proper non-beach attire, but "from time to time, there is the one or two who take their chances." Source 4s
