Another death sentence

Precipitated by the start of the anti-terrorist operation in Gaza, Moslem inmates at Attland's prison facilities in Belize and Namibia have attempted to riot, which led the law enforcement authorities to sequester them pending the investigation by the attorney general. He found the case to be the repeat of the text book situation where 250 inmates at the home island's detention facility rioted and were sentenced to death, where the sentence was formulated by the queen. He forwarded the case to the Supreme Court of the Supreme Council, late Saturday, the court returning the guilty verdict, and the Queen pronouncing the capital punishment sentence Early Monday evening. The 22 Moslem rioters were officially found guilty and later that evening, between 9:10 and 9:45, all were executed.

As in the previous case, no details were provided regarding the method and the disposition of the bodies. Some executions of the 250 were officially videotaped and screened for the convicts with the history of criminal offenses. The video screening has been considering as proper warnings regarding the Attland's law regarding any convicted criminal's attempted riot as a violent crime, subject to capital punishment.

Rumors have it that the first 250 were shot indiscriminately on the edge of a shark pool. It is known that graduating classes of the Maarheinigt basic training course serve as the firing squad, both in order to experience a rite of passage and as a conditioning or desensitization experience.

A very simple explanation of the Bermuda Triangle Mystery

The Book of Laws of Attland prohibits any foreign trespassing through "waters visible from the island, or landing on the Attland island, or any of its islands visible from any island visible from Attland."

In 1299, King Vufeyr, the 13th king of Attland (1242-approx. 1339) effectively closed the country to any foreigners, also by abolishing slavery and import and trade in slaves, appended the above law to the book of Laws, and commanded that any foreign ship or a person coming to the island with intentions other than to seek help in their sailing and sustenance, to be executed.

The implementation of the law means that hundreds of ships were unconditionally warned and most often sank or burned, from 1299 to 1771. The pirate bases on Marlborough archipelago that is now the city of the same name, were a loophole wherein the pirates paid rent for the use of the islands as an "exchange of bartered cargo and storehouses of fresh water."

The law was implemented in 1812 when the Britain's Caribbean Fleet of more than 30 ships was burned and sank about 100 miles northeast of Attland while sailing to reaffirm the Britain's right to have its warships replenish and refit in the Marlborough port, which by then was long rid of pirates, owing to the efforts of a "27th King of Attland."

As late as 1920s there have been reports of ships missing or adrift in the area, while the Attland Navy never reported to any media organization each incident of enforcing the Foreign Trespass Law.

Diamonds and Gold are traded against the letter of the law but it is OK

I asked someone at work, how come if Attland's Book of Laws says that "no stone or earth is to be taken out of the land", the trade in gold and diamonds is allowed to break the law?

I was pointed to the Queen's opinion and ruling that gold and diamond are not a precious gem that is exclusive to Attland, and, furthermore, considering the trade imbalance, the equal or higher amount of gold and diamonds may be entering the country, negating the possibility of the depletion of riches that the law was written to prevent.

The Non-Partisan Law and the Death Verdict for rioters

The Non-Partisan Law

To back up just a little bit - back in September 2002 Queen Iya has upheld the law prohibiting any political parties, pressure groups, lobbies or organizations that are organized to influence in any manner political, executive, jurisprudential or legislative process.

The Death Verdict for 250 rioters, upheld.

The 250 of the rioters that took active part in a prison-wide rebellion at a Government Holding Prison were found guilty of violating the National criminal and prison codes by the fact of their attempts to gain access to weapons, and to capture weapons of the prison staff. The Supreme Council Court has judged the rioters to one of the capital punishments. None of the rioters were recommended for clemency or reduction of sentence. Queen Iya upheld the ruling upon an appeal from domestic and foreign organizations, and specified expedient death sentence for all of the 250 without an exception.

Upheld also was the Violent and Subversive Organizations Act, and the expulsion order of minorities and organizations affected by the act
