Singapore police arrest five Nepalese

KOL Report

KATHMANDU, Apr 24 - Singapore police has arrested five Nepalese men for trying to enter Singapore illegally by swimming from neighboring Malaysia Saturday morning.
The men were caught while heading towards Singapore with the aid of tyre inner tubes, reported Associated Press (AP) quoting Singapore police.

The detained Nepalese have been charged in court with attempted illegal entry, and if convicted, face up to six months' jail and three strokes of the cane, reports said. (dds)

hahahaha.. nice one alkatraz... but they deserve it.. and trust me when i say this.. those canings they'll be getting.. man.. they're never ever... evvvveeeeerrr... gonna forget it for the rest of their lives. fancy trying to pull off such a stunt.. it's people like these that makes the lives of Nepalese trying to go overseas difficult... they were probably in M'sia legally.. so what the f*** they wanna go over to S'pore for.. and by swimming.. man.. i dunno whether to laugh at their idiocy or curse em for doing something so stupid...

This incident clearly shows how desperate our fellow Nepalese are and they don't mind seeking employment even if it means putting their life in danger.F.. the people in Nepal who are making things difficult for the civilain people.

i agree with singdude on people pulling such drastic actions for a better future. ed hunter, what can i say?? please don't be so harsh with words. don't call them idiots, stupid or curse them....c'mon man. don't you think they should be handed over to nepal and nepal decide what to do with them. if you are caught doing something illegally in US, UK or wherever you are, don't you want nepal to come to your rescue?? or would you want people to read the news of your arrest and laugh??........i'm sorry to say this man, but just think.........they're just trying to make some more bucks....just like many of us..........please be considerate
cheers
