Judge Edward Cashman sentenced a man who raped a young girl for four years to a measly 60 days in prison.

Freedom was always more in the eye of the foreign beholder than in the heart of the beheld. As for Bhutan's purity, it was to some extent imposed from above. No citizen was allowed to hold foreign currency, no school trips could be taken...
