Indonesia—having passed on half-measures like shadow-triggered spear-walls and dogs with bees in their mouth and when they bark they shoot bees—has come up with an outside-the-box idea for guarding its death row drug convicts: crocodiles. A body of water teeming with crocodiles.
Budi Waseso, Indonesia’s drug chief, is dead-ass about this plan, in which inmates would be placed on an island and surrounded by, no shit, crocodiles. From a report from The Guardian: “We will place as many crocodiles as we can there. I will search for the most ferocious type of crocodile,” he was quoted as saying by local news website Tempo.
Indonesia’s anti-drugs agency has proposed building a prison on an island guarded by crocodiles to hold death row drug convicts, an official has said, an idea seemingly taken from a James Bond film. The proposal is the pet project of anti-drugs chief Budi Waseso, who plans to visit various parts of the archipelago in his search for reptiles to guard the jail.
