Just so you know I read your reply (thanks for the answer) I think that's a good idea on the surface, but what would happen if the girls legged it while on some jungle trail or whatever, is what I would worry about. However at least that shows you are thinking about solutions, not just rubbishing what's being done at the moment.

I also think a good idea would be to properly educate Western people as to the risks they take if they do this sort of thing. People going on holidays to these countries might have the option maybe of sitting through a short video or being sent a pamphlet clearly outlining what the laws in that country are, how they differ to the UK and what those who break them can expect.

Although I definitely don't subscribe to this idea that they didn't know what they were risking. They knew it, and were too arrogant to believe they would be caught.
