India Wants to Arrest Gere!

Last week we told you that Richard Gere had caused rioting in India, due to a kiss on the cheek, and now a court in India has ordered Gere's arrest!!

The court considers the repeated kissing on that cheek that Gere laid on Shilpa Shetty, and "obscene act". Shetty has also been told to appear in court.

I'm assuming that Gere is not going to show up for court, because that would just be ridiculous. I'm also assuming that a kiss on the cheek, although not quite continental, is not something that you can be extradited to India for.

Apparently, if Gere steps foot back in India, he can be held there and there is a sentence of up to three months or a fine, if he is arrested. That's going to cramp his Dali Lama visiting style!
