BE CAREFUL IF YOU'RE COMING TO JAPAN!!

Be careful if you're a foreigner coming into Japan who is kind (and naive) enough to carry someone else's luggage for them: when immigration discovers the drugs hidden there, you're likely to get 14 years in the slammer like this innocent British architect did, more than some Japanese are recently getting for murder, under the one truly inscrutable thing about Japan, its judicial system. Guy was kept in solitary for 10 months because he wouldn't plead guilty!!
