TBERLIN (Reuters) - A swingers club in Berlin has been forced to shut because a court ruled that members' moans and shrieks of pleasure broke noise regulations.

Partner-swapping customers at the ground-floor club called ''Zwielicht'' -- a German word meaning both ''twilight'' and ''dubious'' -- upset those living upstairs, a Berlin court ruled this week.

            
''There are other clubs and brothels in this area and the customers there don't make so much noise. They are more discreet,'' a court spokeswoman said Wednesday.

Berlin actress Anouschka Renzi, who lives above the club, told the court she was tired of seeing men wearing only bathrobes getting out of limousines on their way into the club.

''This is not a red-light district,'' she said.
