BERLIN (Reuters) - A German man who spent 10 days in a
self-made box atop a 72-foot-tall pole to protest a
looming jail term was lured off his perch by his wife
-- who sent up a topless picture of herself in his
lunch box.
Fred Gregor, 45, was bidding to have his 15-month
conviction for fraud overturned by squatting in his
tiny cubicle atop a converted television mast. He told
Reuters in a telephone interview last week that he
wanted a new trial.
His wife Susanne, 25, backed his protest until the
former stripper and mother of their five children
decided she had had enough.
