Absolutely, where is sri Lanka's developed economy, good governance, or independent judiciary, compared to a country like Australia?Nearly 70 years since independence and you have spent most of it going backwards.

He should have gotten a couple years, there could be children there, indecent exposure in front of a minor.

He should be kept in jail without clothes so that the inmates could have some entertainment poking fun at him!!!

He would have thought he was going for a dip in the Victoria as the ground was covered with water due to rain so pardon him
