In short:
Indian police have arrested an American man who visited a restricted island and left offerings to a tribe not contacted by the modern world.
Mykhailo Polyakov had previously made two unsuccessful attempts to reach North Sentinel Island, home of the Sentinelese people.
What’s next?
Local authorities say he has been released on a three-day remand “for further interrogation”.
I’m not sure about that headline, ABC. How about, “arrested for risking killing hundreds of people with COVID/disease, in order to make YouTube content”. This way you can’t be smug and cute about a genuine risk, or the application of law by foreigners.
“Risk wiping out an entire ethnic group”
