Idi oka mail forward lo vachindi. Thought I would put it out there for people who have not seen this.Please read andensure your home department knows as well. Gasagasalu tini drug test ki velte kuda you will test positive for drugs.Mana vantala lo common ga use chestaru.



Dear Friends,

Yesterday only I came to know of a case from a friend of mine which is very scary. One of his friends was traveling to UK via Dubai. Unfortunately he was carrying a packet of Khas Khas which is a commonly used spice in some Indian curries and sweets. Khas Khas is also known as poppy seed which can be sprouted to grow narcotics (afeem etc.).

This innocent person did not know that recently the laws in UAE and other Gulf countries have been revised and carrying Khas Khas is punishable with minimum 20 years of imprisonment or even worse with
death penalty. Currently, the person is in a jail in Dubai for the last two weeks. His friends are frantically trying hard for his release but are finding that this has become a very very serious case. Lawyers are asking huge fees amounting to AED 100,000 even to appear in the court to plead for his innocence.

Please forward this email to all you know specially in India. They should know the seriousness of this matter and should never ever carry even minutest quantities of the following items when traveling to Gulf
countries:

1. Khas Khas whether raw, roasted or cooked.
2. Paan
3. Beetle nut (supari and its products, e.g. Paan Parag etc.)

The penalties are very severe and it could destroy the life of an innocent person.

I appeal you to create the awareness by forwarding this email to all you know.

Khus-khus gets him 10 years in prison


Our Correspondent in Abu Dhabi

Khus-khus is a spice that forms an important part of many curries, biryanis and kormas in India. It is available at your friendly neighbourhood grocery.

But khus-khus seeds have landed Mohammed Abdul Kaleem Bahadur, an Indian commercial artist, in jail for 10 years, and cost him a fine of Dirhams 50,000 (INR 600,000 approx) and deportation.

Bahadur was arrested on August 8, 1996, and was convicted by the Sharia Criminal Court on September 30, 1997. His appeal was rejected in October 1998.

Recently, the Federal High Court, the UAE's highest judicial body, rejected his final appeal and confirmed his sentence.

The court ruled that since the defendant had admitted bringing the unroasted khus-khus seeds -- said to contain opium -- into the country, he should be punished under the law, which states that possessing or planting khus-khus is prohibited in the country.

In his appeal, Bahadur had stated that his conviction by the lower courts was rather harsh and contrary to previous judgements passed for the same offence.

He had stated that since he was not aware that the Indian spice was banned in the UAE, there was no criminal intent.

But for the court, it was not a subject of concern to them that khus-khus, the aromatic fibrous root of an Indian grass, was widely used as a spice in India.

The court ruled that the law maintained that khus-khus contained a drug and forbade planting or bringing of these seeds into the country. The crime was completed as the "drugs" had passed through the customs on their way to the country.

Incidentally, India's Ambassador to the UAE, K C Singh, said the embassy would make a mercy appeal to the UAE authorities since there was no guilty intention on Bahadur's part; he had just made a mistake.

"The regulations of the land are there in place and we fully appreciate and respect the importance they carry," Singh said.

"However, it would appear reasonable to make a distinction between a passenger well-settled and employed in the UAE, travelling with his family and carrying a purported condiment, and a passenger carrying a banned drug in the knowledge that it was an offence, Singh told the media.

serious or kidding??

In case you are serious, 'saved my face'' is a phrase used in a context similar to 'noru jaarakunde vundedhhaannu'
