It's 'wrong' that the type of thing can happen but it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. Is it surprising that a person would be bound by the local laws any customs of the place he lives or visits?

What do you think should happen? Should foreigners be exempt from local law?
Why should you get a different set of rules?? Whats wrong with our laws here in the west?? Too lax? Not oppressive enough?
