London - An amorous Italian couple have been convicted and fined £9 000 for having such noisy sex that it forced their neighbours to move out, the Daily Mail reported.
The pair, who are in their 30s, faced charges of noise pollution and harassment for the “raucous screams” during steamy sex sessions at their apartment.
Their long-suffering neighbours, who first took them to court in 2009, described the wails of passion as “deafening”, added the report.
The man, whose name has been withheld, was sentenced to four months in prison in 2011, and his fiancée given a noise abatement order.
But the couple appealed the sentence and have now been ordered to pay £7 000 in damages to their neighbours who now live elsewhere, and £2 000 in legal fees.
