Bride and groom in trouble for kissing

An Israeli couple who were getting married in India could be in trouble with police for kissing publicly at a Hindu holy place, reports say.

Hindu priests blew a fuse when the couple kissed on the banks of the holy Lake Pushkar in the northern Indian state of Rajasthan.

"It spoiled the prayers. The wedding became a farce because of this unholy act," said pandit S. N. Garg.

The pandits have filed a complaint with police under an archaic law that treats kissing at religious places as a vulgar act. Those found guilty can be jailed for three months.
