I am appalled and saddened by the British Police.. first their cluelessness after the London Bombings where the guys simply escaped and if it wasnt for the crass stupidity of those guys they would not have been caught.. and now this! From the British rule time in India – most Indians have a good degree of respect for the professionalism of the British Police and that is what saddens me…. it seems to be vanishing!
British detectives said on Monday they had launched an inquiry into claims police staff had been selling close-up pictures of a huge group of naked people who took part in a photo shoot for a U.S. artist.
Around 1,700 volunteers stripped off last July in Newcastle, northeastern England, for an installation by New York-based contemporary artist Spencer Tunick, known worldwide for his photographs of massed groups of naked people.
Northumbria police said they were investigating reports that pictures taken on the day from closed circuit television cameras were now being offered for sale in the area.
