EVEN in non-prudish Austria, nudity in public places has its price. A woman faces a fine of up to 1,000 euros (US$1,340) for repeated outings in nothing but a pair of white tennis shoes.

    Police spokesman Johann Baumschlager said the young woman was stopped by police after cycling past officers manning a radar trap on a highway.

    Baumschlager said the woman was told to go home and get dressed. She was informed she had been charged with disturbing public decency. She had previously been sighted in the buff while shopping in a supermarket and at a gas station. (SD-Agencies)
