FYI...
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.
