The American tourist was arrested after visiting North Sentenil island

The effect on social media has warned “a new and increasing threat” for the indigenous people who do not control this, and a charity after the arrest of an American tourist who traveled to an Indian ocean island has warned.

Mykhailo Viktorovych Polyakov, 24, landed on North Sentenil Island in a clear attempt to contact the isolated guard tribe, photograph his visit and leave a box of Coca -Cola and coconut on the beach.

Survival International, a group calling for the rights of the tribal people, said that the alleged act presents the life of the man and the life of the tribe, describing it as “very annoying.”

The United States said it was familiar with and “monitoring the situation.”

The Andaman and Nicobar police chief in the Hugs Islands, news agency news agency, told the news agency that “an American citizen” had been submitted to the local court and was detained for three days because of “interrogation of more.”

Agence Agence France -Presse, citing Mr. Daliowal, said that Polakov dawn a whistle off the island’s beach in an attempt to attract the tribe’s attention for about an hour.

Then he fell for five minutes, leaving his shows, collecting samples and recording a video.

“A review of GOPRO camera shots has shown his entry and landing on the restricted North Sentinel,” the police chief told AFP.

It is illegal for foreigners or Indians to travel 5 kilometers (three miles) of the islands to protect people who live there.

According to the police, Mr. Polyakov visited the area twice before using inflatable kayak boats in October last year before the hotel staff stopped.

Upon his arrest earlier this week, the man told the police that he was “an exciting student,” the Indian media reported.

Survival International said that the guard had made their desire to avoid strangers It is clear for many years and emphasized that such visits pose a threat to a society that has no immunity to external diseases.

Jonathan Mazur, spokesperson for Survival International, told BBC that they are afraid that social media will be to add to the list of threats that the tribes do not exceed. Several media reports have been linked to the YouTube account, which features a modern trip videos to Afghanistan.

“In addition to all the most desperate threats of such peoples – such things – such as cutting trees and mining in the Amazon where most unpopular peoples live – there are now an increasing number of … influencers who are trying to do this kind of things for followers.”

“There is magic on the growing social media with this entire idea.”

Survival International The Sentinilese describes as “the most isolated indigenous in the world” who live on an island around the size of Manhattan.

Mr. Mazower BBC told the tribe, before adding that it was “impossible” to know its real number.

He said that few details are known about the group, unlike that it is a mosque in a fisherman who lives in small and “very health” settlements.

He added that the accident highlighted the reason for the importance of government protection for societies, such as the guard.
