Two American men have reportedly been detained in Thailand after posting a photo on Instagram of themselves exposing their buttocks at a Buddhist temple. Immigration officials arrested the Dasilvas, who are married, at Bangkok’s Don Mueang International Airport on Tuesday and charged them with public indecency. The men reportedly each paid a fine of 5,000 baht (about $150) but remain in custody. Instead, they would be charged with committing indecency in a place of worship, which carries a long jail term,” the statement read. “Though I am very disappointed in their actions,” Murray-Ramirez told San Diego Gay and Lesbian News, “I am talking to U.S. government officials to see what assistance we can give them.”
