VIN News was also able to verify that in fact they are being treated well, and their religious needs are respected.
According to VIN's source, the situation is extremely serious, as in Japanese law, such an offense can incur life imprisonment, or worse. The public is urged to continue praying for their release.

Rabosai - when flying to israel, be careful, very very careful, if somone asks you to to take something for them. 99% of the olam is erlich. it is the 1% that you need to worry about.
not worth the risk of spending time in jail.

Of course not! They thought they were getting a free trip to Japan for bringing an envelope!

The boys actually passed a polygraph, lie detector, test which has proven that they did not know that they were transporting drugs. I really think that we should all be aware and warn anyone that we know NEVER to accept free tickets and trips from anyone to transport packages or suitcases. The saddest part about this whole case is that the chances of it happening again are 100%! I have not seen any letters or announcements from Rabbonim warning about this!

common sense should dictate that something that is too good to be true is not good and not true. why would someone pay for a trip to japan for carrying a package. We have ups that will do it a lot cheaper

Being naive is not a crime. Being a bad person who takes advantage of naive people IS. Hashem knows the EMES-- we need to daven that HE judges according to the EMES and does not allow the SHEKER to have power over the boys.

Being naive is not a crime; transporting drugs is. They're lucky they got caught in Japan and not some third world country.

where are the parents in this? they should monitor very carefully their kids going on long trips unsupervised or not inquiring into details. My mother always made great pains to montor my comings and goings if they were safe.

I rather expect that the cops in Japan know this, but they don't care. The boys were transporting drugs, that they may or may not have been doing it for someone else probably does not matter to them. Being stupid or trusting is not a defense here.

Askonim are working around the clock for their release, there is a commitee in NY with a dayan from antwerp involved, a commitee in London and Rabbi Mendel Shafran in israel.
No time to waste just open a tehillim and your heart. Please daven for Yoel ben Risa Mirel Chave (23) who has been charged. Yakove Yosef ben Reisel (19 and Yosef ben Ita Rivka (17). They are in horific jails in Japan. Although there is a lot of effort being done to treat them well and fair, the jails in Japan are horricfic. It is pachad movess to stay there. The whole justice system is the worst in the world with no respect for any human rights issues. All we could do is daven and daven and Hashem will deffinatly listen to our prayers.

On the first day of my arrival I was thrown into a filthy solitary cell and given a rulebook to read. The rulebook consisted of hundreds of rules for living in the prison. I was kept in this cell for three weeks and forced to perform menial labour, consisting of smoothing out the wrinkles in hundreds of aluminium cupcake doilies. Once I had finished smoothing out the entire carton the guard came to inspect my work. He reached into the box containing all the smoothed out doilies and crushed them all up again. I was told that I would have to do them over. After 3 weeks of solitary I was told that I would be starting to work in a training factory. During this training period you are shown how you will do everything in the correct manner. It was like a boot camp for Nazis. They have rules for how to walk, how to use the toilet, how to sit, how to place things in your cell, etc. etc. We were being systematically turned into automatons. Everything was drilled repeatedly into our heads. If we made mistakes during the training we were pushed around and screamed at. On two occasions I witnessed prisoners who were beaten for their failure to cooperate. I personally experienced a physical beating and strangulation to the point of unconsciousness at the hands of no less than eight guards after only being in the prison for three months.
This is take from a human rights websites.
the economist reported recently that there was A majour" story in japan someone had been found not guilty. teh conviction rates is almost 100% most judges have NEVER foundsome one innocnet. we need all to be mispallel, for ALL the innocent people imprisoned in the world, let us not forget the Chayalim, who were not silly and were protecting Kellal Yisroel and may hashem be merachem on all of and bring the Geulla shelimo bekorov.
