Police in Sweden were less than impressed after a man reported a couple to officers - for having sex in their own home.

The 34-year-old man told police he was looking through the window of a house in Blekinge, southern Sweden, and saw a couple making love.

Apparently outraged by what he had seen, he contacted police immediately and reported the lovers for sexual harassment.

But local police were having none of it, and closed the case.

"Having sex in your own home is not a crime," officer Johan Berntsson told the Blekinge Läns Tidning newspaper.
