A sombre day

For some reason, I was at the Duta Court today.

It's the first time in my life to be in an actual court, witnessing actual cases being settled and actually seeing prisoners, wearing the orange jumpsuite and hand cuffs on as they were escourted by the police.

I actually heard quite a few cases today. The most shocking one was a young man who was caught of heroine possession. I thought "oh my god he's gonna die!" But no I was wrong, he was being fine some amount of money only lah. Later did I found out that drug possession won't take your life. It's only those to do drug trafficking only will be judged for death sentence.

Whew, scary.

There were some who steal cars, steal bikes, and now i know that when you steal something, there will be a double charge if they found the stolen stuff undere your possession. So 1 for stealing, another 1 for possessing the stolen goods.

And then I saw a really young boy, as in, judged by his look i think the most also only 18 or 19 years old. I don't know what he did wrong, but I heard he cannot leave Selangor border. And if he do so he'll be put into jail. Or if he really need to go out of the state, he has to apply from the court first. And I saw the mother's eyes filled with tears. The son looked relaxed as though nothing really bothers him.

I was feeling pretty depressed at that point.

And then I had to wait. 4 hours I've waited and I can finally come home. Oh my.. There were actually plenty more things I wanted to share but I'm afraid to be arrested.. Well, you know..

Yeah finally I can go back to biopsych.. Cranial nerves, corpus callosum and lots of other very-hard-to-remember words, here I come~~
