If a belt can't be a dangerous object, then I guess nobody's ever been strangled with one, or been whipped so severely (especially with a metal buckle) that they went into shock and possibly died. Given UBS' trainwreck performance, and given that the Swiss can't play the same hide-the-money games, what's left except being the fixer for somebody with money? And note that the MUSLIM sheikh was consuming alcohol AND in a very curious position with a man. In Iran, either offense could at least yield a flogging. The conviction should stand/be reinstated.

Sounds like the Swiss who stole the assets that Jews had in their banks and profited from Apartheid in South Africa. The Swiss figure they can gain exonomically from currying favors from the Saudis at the expense of Gays.
