Comedian Sacha Baron Cohen offers to pay fine

English actor Sacha Baron Cohen has offered to help a group of Czech tourists who were arrested last week in the Kazakh capital of Astana last week for disorderly conduct. The group of six changed into black wigs and neon-green thong swimsuits, similar to those worn by the actor in the film Borat, attempting to take a picture in front of a panel saying ‘I love Astana.’

They were released after paying a fine of 22,500 tenge (approximately 60 euros). The comedian, on facebook, offered to pay the fine if the Czechs got back to him with details.
