2009/12/13 Mervyn Lobo <mervynal...@yahoo.ca>: Lets take the case of the Goan drunkard who has 10 beers and then crashes his car/motor-bike into the nearest coconut tree, killing himself. My QUESTION is: How are you going to punish this guy?
ANSWER: I'd remind him of the modified Nunes principle: Thou shalt not have that much of an "interest in de beers" and apply the law as per Bennet: "if the authorities come to know about it, that person should be immediately arrested and taken into custody" BTW: What, may I ask, is distinction between "arrest" and "take into custody"? Hint: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/arrest good wishes as always jc
