Arrested Girl 'Upset And Scared' Over Nude Pics

A British student jailed in Malaysia after being accused of causing an earthquake by posing naked on a sacred mountain is said to be "scared and upset".

Eleanor Hawkins is one of five tourists who are being investigated for indecent behaviour after the photographs were taken from the peak of Mount Kinabalu.
A few days later, a 5.9-magnitude earthquake struck nearby and killed 18 climbers - prompting a senior Malaysian politician to say that the tourists' behaviour was to blame.
The 23-year-old graduate from Derby was detained on Tuesday at an airport in Borneo as she attempted to fly to Malaysia's capital, Kuala Lumpur.
Her father, Timothy Hawkins, has conceded his daughter is "obviously" among the 10 people who appear in the images - but said the situation should not be "blown out of all proportion".
He said in a statement to Sky News: "She knows what she did was stupid and disrespectful and she is very sorry for the offence she has caused the Malaysian people.
