I don't get it the humour here...

From what I can understand, the guy's a TV celebrity who was visiting another country. While in that country, he was arrested and charged with breaking a local religious law based on the content of his show. He has been tried, found guilty and sentenced to death for his crime. He has appealed the decision but lost his appeal and had his sentence upheld... All the while, he has been locked away in a foreign prison and hasn't seen his wife and family for two years.

I realize that the "sorcery" aspect of it is kinda funny... I chuckled a little bit myself, until I read the story... but this guy is going to be put to death. We shouldn't be laughing about it, we should should be encouraging their Government to let him go.


Edit: Unless, of course, they have a special clause that allows them to also kill people who support sorcerers. In which case, I'll just keep my mouth shut and keep using their oil in my car.
