but the system in Australia allows for a person to be charged for a specific crime and must be dealt with in a specific time frame. Correct me if I am wrong but people cannot be held indefinately pending some supposed investigation.
Packer has been charged with gun running, nothing to do with not declaring weapons for self protection. Gun running with 4 weapons, whos kidding who?
Corby is charged with drug importation. Why are the police showing no interest in having the drugs tested for DNA to confirm origin?
The jet ski incident is tragic. Why are the police (Pastika in particular) holding the poor guy who is obviously distressed about his mate. They have his passport, he cannot leave so why not release him to his family?
The only system they have in Indonesia is a sewerage system and we know that doesn't work that well and is on the nose. Their legal system is the same, a perfect example is a particular individual having a coffee at a restaurant after killing, what, 208 innocent people.
