Mount Kinabalu naked photo accused jailed
Four tourists who posed naked on a mountain in Malaysia have been given jail terms and fined.
Briton Eleanor Hawkins, Canadians Lindsey and Danielle Peterson, and Dutchman Dylan Snel admitted causing a public disturbance.
The group was blamed for a magnitude 5.9 earthquake after stripping on Mount Kinabalu, which is considered sacred.
They were jailed for three days, but their sentences were back-dated to reflect time already served.
A judge at Kota Kinabalu Magistrates' Court said the four had shown remorse and ordered the jail terms to run from 9 June, meaning the group is free to leave.
He also fined each defendant 5,000 Malaysian ringgit (£860/$1,330

New York prison worker charged with helping fugitives
A New York state prison worker who police say provided tools to help two convicted murderers escape has been arrested.

Richard Matt and David Sweat escaped on Sunday using power tools to cut through their cell walls at the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora.
A massive manhunt is currently under way for the pair.
Prosecutors say Mrs Mitchell gave Matt and Sweat hacksaw blades and drill bits, but she did not provide the more powerful tools they used.
