Wrong place to come ashore

This BBC article describes four women from Moldova who paid over six grand to two Ukrainians to smuggle them into Greece. Unfortunately, the idiots dropped them off on the peninsula of Mount Athos, which is a monastic community closed to women. The man who came along wasn't charged with trespassing, just illegal entry.

In the same area, "fighting broke out between rebel Esphigmenou monks occupying a monastery office and a rival group of legally-recognised monks. Police said the fight-- in which fire extinguishers and crowbars were used as weapons-- left seven needing treatment... The fighting happened at the Esphigmenou group's representative office in the town of Karyes in Mt Athos... The rebel monks have been occupying the site since 2003 and have ignored eviction orders from both the Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew I and Greece's supreme court."

Rico says some human stupidity you just have to laugh at...
