Five men were arrested in Hunan after protesting naked downtown. The punishment for this kind of indecent behavior is 15 to 20 days administrative detention.

At eight in the morning, 10 men gathered at the gate of the hospital. Five of the men undressed and stood naked in the doorway shouting slogans.

The scene attracted a crowd of onlookers. Many people took photos of the protest. The men were approached by a security guard about twenty minutes later and the five men put their clothes back on. Soon, they were picked up by the police.

Police found out that the men were from Qidong, Huanan, and were protesting a verdict in a recent case. The case was a contract dispute, Li Tianming vs. Qiyang Sunshine Hydropower Development Company (Sunshine Company). Sunshine Company refused to accept an appeal, and Li's case was dismissed by the lower court.

Li refused to accept the verdict, and wished the take the case to the Hunan High Court. He filed an appeal for a retrial and was rejected.

They should have rather sold nudes of themselves and used the proceeds to pay whichever court rejected their appeal
