The Indonesian editor of Playboy magazine was acquitted of indecency charges that would have jailed him for 3 years if convicted.

Efran Basyuning, presiding judge of the South Jakarta District Court, said pictures of scantily dressed women, some in underwear with their breasts partially exposed, could not be categorized as pornography under the country's criminal law.

"This is a bitter pill," said one demonstrator, Bachtiar Ali. "Do we have to wait until our wives and daughters are raped? We will keep fighting. Pornography as a moral crime that destroys the nation's faith."

Actually, yes, you do have to wait until your wives and daughters are raped - because that, unlike Playboy magazine, is actually a crime.
