Life in a jail in Pakistan for an American man

Tweet

An American man made a friend and the friend asked for him to do a job for him. It was go to Turkey and collect some garments. He did that and got the money. He told his brother and he was interested in going to collect some garments. His brother went right off then idea when they found out the destination was Pakistan. He felt he had go because his brother had let his friend down. Off he went to Pakistan and he got the garments from his contact then took himself to the airport. At the airport he was arrested for drugs found in his garment bag. He didn't get on very well because they wouldn't accept his not guilty plea. He was put in a cell and a local man asked which nationality he was. He said American and the local people began to bash him! When he was put in the jail the local people tried to punch him. He was a strong man who gave as good as he got. He got tortured and that really shocked me. He stayed in jail for just over 2 years. Why would the court not accept a not guilty plea? Why did you think the local people were so hostile to the American man? Do you think torture should be outlawed in this day and age? Would you feel safe to travel to Pakistan?
