EDINBURGH, Scotland, Jan. 19 (UPI) -- A former British marine known as the Naked Rambler took only six steps toward freedom before being arrested again for public nudity.

Steven Gough, who insists it is his right to walk nude across Britain, was arrested Friday, minutes after leaving the Edinburgh Sheriff Court wearing only his beard and a backpack, The Scotsman reported Saturday,

Gough, 48, of Eastleigh, Hampshire, had just been released after spending 20 months in various jails for repeatedly walking naked in public, The Times of London reported.
