War on Drugs

Here's a bizarre case from Japan. A guy has been arrested because he founded and owned a forum on which one post allegedly mentioned drugs.

"Nishimura will be charged with abetting drug dealing. However, some twitter users have pointed out that the statute of limitations for the drug law in question is 3 years, and Nishimura sold 2channel more than 3 years ago."

This sounds more like political payback than anything.
