(245)  BAILED AGAIN, AND BACK IN THE BUFF

 

On 26 August 2003 the Naked Rambler Steve Gough was released from Inverness Prison where he had spent a week in solitary confinement following his arrest for a breach of the peace by walking unclothed in Inverness.  Gough is attempting to walk naked from Land’s End to John O’Groats in a protest in what he regards as outmoded laws on nudity and public decency (see No 242).  He was released on bail after promising to commit no more offences, but indicated outside court that he would continue his attempted walk in the buff, but as far as possible out of the public eye.
