NamKangMan Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I am sure I read on TV recently that Tourist Police had to meet specific criteria, one of them being they had to be under 45 years of age. Unless this is a photo from the archives, it appears two out of the three don't meet that criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
