No it wouldn't, in Westminster abbey there would probably be other people around which would make it public indecency. If someone stripped off in Westminster abbey when no one was around other than their friends, it shouldn't be any sort of a problem at all. On a personal note, I would be quite pleased if the entire world showed up to strip down and defecate on Westminster abbey's doorstep, but that's another thread for another day.
The mountain isn't "sacred", they sure as **** didn't cause an earthquake, and whilst yes it's arrogant and immature to go travelling and act like idiots (which they were) there's a pretty massive chasm between that and it actually being illegal. Send them home, ban them from the country, whatever. Don't lock them up Ffs. I can see this going really badly and some backwater idiot hurting or killing one of them for angering the mountain gods.
