Comedian Russell Brand and pop singer Katy Perry flew to the Maldives on Monday after their wedding at a luxury resort near the Ranthambore tiger sanctuary, while authorities inv-estigated whether the wedding party broke noise laws.
On Monday afternoon, the newlyweds boarded a helicopter near Ranthambore National Park and arrived in Jaipur, where they took a chartered flight to the Maldives, Jaipur airport director R.K. Singh said. Rajasthan state’s CM Ashok Gehlot on Monday ordered an investigation into public complaints about party noise that lasted into the early hours of Sunday, local district collector Ravi Kumar Surpur said. Local laws bar noise beyond 10 pm that would disturb local communities or wildlife.
The Ranthambore National Park is home to tigers, leopards, wild boars and other animals. If laws were broken, the concerned parties or the resort management would be charged, Surpur said. Also, two men from the wedding party apologised for assaulting fo-ur news photographers, then taking their car keys and stranding them in the wild tiger reserve. The written apology acknowledged “physical assault” and “bad behaviour.”
