With his home-made potion and magic hands, the President of The Gambia has found a cure for aids ...

Quote:
The United Nations has warned of dangerous consequences after the leader of a tiny West African country declared he can cure Aids.

The President of The Gambia says his herbal remedy can kill HIV in his patients' blood.

He's already treated dozens of his people with his traditional medicine, succeeding, he says, where modern medical science has failed.

Sceptics are not welcome.

"Who do I have to convince?" he demanded, jabbing his finger towards me.
"The World?" I suggested.
"I do not have to convince anybody'' he replied "I can cure Aids and I will not explain it to those who don't want to understand."

Do none of his citizens question his ability to lead the nation ...

Here we have a guy dabbling in an area best left to those like our resident stuckist ...

Quote:
A 57-year-old Swiss man has pleaded guilty in a court in Thailand to charges of insulting the king.

Oliver Jufer was arrested last December after drunkenly spray-painting several portraits of the monarch, King Bhumibol Adulyadej

He is due to be sentenced later this month, and the maximum penalty he could face is 75 years in jail.
