Ex-California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger was fined 200 euros twice for puffing his cigar at two Austrian airports on a visit to his mother country in June, the daily Krone Zeitung reported Tuesday. The offences took place at Graz and Salzburg, the newspaper said.
The former Mister Universe and actor-turned politician may get away without paying the $280-dollar penalties as Austria and the United States have no co-operation agreement on these type of offences. But the Krone Zeitung said Graz authorities have not given up hope and have sent the fines to the US embassy in Vienna with the aim of bringing the celebrity to account for contravening its smoking law. The former "Terminator" star has sought to revive his film career since leaving the California governor's office earlier this year.
