Recently an Indonesian woman spent time in jail after emailing a friend
to complain that she received poor treatment at a hospital. She was jailed for slander and is being pursued by both criminal and civil charges.
The criminal case was recently dismissed by a judge but the prosecutor swore to aggressively pursue it to the next highest court. The law she supposedly violated didn't even exist until after the email was sent.
Hmm, no other legal problems in Indonesia to pursue I guess.
