Well, word of their plight eventually made it back to the man behind Borat himself, Sacha Baron Cohen. And in the early hours of Tuesday morning, he came to their rescue with a Facebook post:

"To my Czech mates who were arrested," reads the statement. "Send me your details and proof that it was you, and I'll pay your fine."

The contact email is the crowning touch: [email protected].
