Naked rambler Stephen Gough loses human rights case (BBC)

The so-called naked rambler Stephen Gough has lost his case at the European Court after claiming he suffered repression over his nudity.

Mr Gough, 55, complained about his repeated convictions and imprisonment.

Since 2003 he has been arrested dozens of times in Scotland and England for being naked in public.
