A THAI couple who had sex in a public park on Sunday evening
were each fined $1,000 on Tuesday.
Ngernthaisong Phichet, 36, a construction worker, and his
girlfriend, Phloetphrao Somphan, 35, pleaded guilty to committing
an obscene act at Harmony Hub along Beach Road at about 11pm.
A magistrate's court heard that an auxiliary policeman was
patrolling near Beach Road when he heard sounds coming from the
nearby bushes inside Harmony Hub.
He shone the torchlight towards the bushes and found the naked
couple having sex.
Somphan was here on a social visit pass.
They could have been jailed for up to three months and/or
fined.
