Why being naked in your hotel room could land you in jail | The Sun

DON'T get too relaxed in your hotel room, as being naked in it could land you in jail.

Sometimes guests want to kick back and shuck the clothes, especially in a hot country.

But one country could fine you if you are caught in the nude in your room.

In Singapore it’s illegal to be naked in your hotel room.

If someone reports you, you cold get a $2,000 (£1,241) fine or even land three months in jail.

This is because it would be seen as "obscene and lewd" behaviour under the  Miscellaneous Offences (Public Order and Nuisance) Act (MOPONA).

Of course, this is only if there is a public view, so make sure to close your curtains.

In 2009, a man was fined $2,600 (£1,614) after he was naked in his own flat, and spotted by his neighbours.

Other ways you could be breaking the law in Singapore include chewing gum, feeding wld animals and stealing someone's WiFi.

Don't vape either – Singapore and more than 35 other countries have strict rules banning it.
