All Cameron has to do is to Stop all our aid to India, when there is no money going into the back pockets they may release them.

Jim
On our local news last night it would appear that these guys are at least going to be given bail so at least they will be out of the hell hole of the jail they are in.
Furthermore the end to all their trauma may be in sight as there is talk that once out on bail they may be allowed to leave the country.
