A quirky little story from New Zealand reared its head this week, as a Andrew Pointon won a courtroom battle allowing him to jog naked in the streets.
He was previously found guilty of indecent exposure last year after being spotted running through a park with a just a pair of trainers on. The conviction was overturned on his second appeal this week however, as the judge likened the incedent to walking past two threatening looking youths; it could be intimidating or even offensive, but certainly not illegal.
The opposing arguement did point out though, that the judge would soon lock this person up if he were to catch him running starkers through his courtroom!
Make of it what you will, Andrew Pointon’s antics do verge on the rather extreme side of the outdoor pursuit spectrum.
