Two Australian tourists accused of stealing a bicycle have been forced to take a "walk of shame" through an Indonesian island with signs round their necks, an official said yesterday.
"I am thieve (sic). Don't do what I did," the signs read.
The tourists, whose identities were not revealed, allegedly stole the bicycle about 10 days ago on Gili Trawangan, a popular tourist destination.
CCTV recordings showed the two Australians taking a bike from the hotel, said village chief Muhamad Taufik.
"The hotel manager reported the case to the authorities who caught the pair the following day".
"We interrogated them, made an agreement, paraded them around the island and forced them to leave Gili."
