Brits partying in Cambodia

Cambodia has charged 10 foreigners for singing and dancing "pornographically" as the kingdom cracks down on inappropriate behaviour at popular tourist sites.

Five British men are among a group of young tourists being held in Cambodia after they allegedly photgraphed people engaging in "pornographic dancing" at a local bar.

"We're innocent", they said.

They said: 'Honestly, it was really confusing. Everyone was confused. They raided, rounded us up - there were about 80 to 100 people at this party.

Most of the group were described by police as expats but some were travellers.

The families of the detainees are said to be "worried sick".

However, in an interesting twist in the tale, one of the tourists who was arrested, has claimed that none of the people in the photo released by the police were part of their group.

The prisoner added: "Our parents are doing what they can. It's really just trying to keep a good vibe until we know the outcome", the detained tourist said.

But one of the group, who spoke under condition of anonymity, told Sky News that the people featured in the photograph had not been arrested.

Someone in the group vomited in shock as they were taken away.

Some of those arrested were expats and others were tourists who had been in the country for several months, said Duong Thavry, chief of the Anti-Human Trafficking and Juvenile Protection Department in Siem Reap.

Among the group are five British men - Vincent Harley Robert Hook, aged 35, Daniel Richard Leeming Jones, 30, Thomas Alexander Jeffries, 22, Billy Stevens, 21, and Paul Francis Harris, 32.

Kiwi Paul Brasch, 32, is among those arrested, reports NZME, as are two Canadian women.

They said they have been sleeping on the floor of an office at a police station in Siem Reap for three days, and emphasised they had been treated well by their captors - saying officers were friendly and had brought them pizza.

It isn't yet clear whether the couples actually had sex.

A spokesman for the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade said consular assistance was being provided to the New Zealander.
