Gang leader is sentenced to 15 years in jail with 1,500 whip lashes for smuggling drugs into prison using drone

A gang leader who used a drone to smuggle drugs into a Saudi Arabian prison has been jailed for 15 years and will be given 1,500 whip lashes, it has been reported.
The daring operation is said to have occurred in 2014 when the small remote-controlled drone delivered 1,997 Captigon narcotic pills and 115 grams of hashish into the Briman Prison in Jeddah.
The drone landed on the roofs of barracks No. 7 and 8 at the prison after being controlled from a nearby supermarket by two brothers of the leader, The Saudi Gazette reported.
Once inside the jail, a prisoner would have turned salesman and transferred the proceeds to a bank account while other prisoners would have retrieved the drone from the roof.

However, a guard in the prison's control tower saw the drone flying into the grounds and blew the whistle on the operation.
The Saudi Arabia attorney general had objected in the Summary Court in Jeddah to the jail sentence - considering it to be extremely light and called for capital punishment for the main defendant.
The unnamed leader had already served 15 years in jail for drug trafficking previously.

A Lebanese expatriate who sold the drone to the smuggler for about SR5,000 (£1,000) was given 1000 lashes and will be deported after serving a prison term of 10 years.
Seven other accomplices in the operation were sentenced to prison terms of between three and 10 years.
More than SR200,000 (£40,000) in cash was found with the gang, an intelligence report had revealed.
It was reported that two prison guards accused of facilitating the entry of the drugs were acquitted.

Here is a University in China where parents are allowed to sleep in tents within the school to tackle separation anxiety

Starting university can be a daunting time for both parents and children especially if they have spent little time apart from each other. 

However one university in China has come up with a way to tackle separation anxiety, by allowing parents to sleep in tents on campus for a few days, reports Huanqiu, an affiliation with the People's Daily Online. 

Tianjin University in north-east China have been providing tents for the past four years to parents who want to ensure their children are fully settled in.

Pictures have emerged showing hundreds of tents, billed as 'tents of love' by Chinese media', were set up in the university's sports hall during the last week of August. 

Feng Shujun, Chief Curator of the event told reporters that parents finding it difficult to locate accommodation during the settling in period are allowed to stay for three days in the sports hall. 

The parents were also given access to showers and toilets during their time in the university's gymnasium.

Mats, drinking water and cups were also on offer for parents. 

The university asked parents to inform them of their intent to stay before their arrival in order to provide them with enough tents and fresh towels. 

Many students and graduates have been discussing the issue on China's social media site Weibo. 

One user wrote: 'I had too much luggage. My dad worried a lot. Honestly, I didn't even know how to catch the train in my first year.' 

While another commented: 'It's great to have my parents' company. But I feel bad for having them stay in a tent.' 

And one user said: 'They are 18-year-old babies. I moved in on my own.' 

Tianjin University is not the only school to adopt this scheme, other universities such as Shantou University in Guangdong province one of a few that have started allowing parents to stay for a few days.

Rob Kardashian moved out of Blac Chyna home after explosive fight

Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna are engaged and are expecting a baby together, but it hasn't been plain sailing for the couple, after an explosive fight leads the father-to-be to move out.
In the latest episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Rob revealed that he had moved out of Chyna's home.

“I've heard they've been having problems recently and I'm sure he's stressed out enough with just everything else,” Khloe said during a lunch with Scott Disick and Kendall.

Worried Khloe, 32, called her brother to find out what happened between the couple and Rob revealed that he had moved out.

“I'm out of her house and we're not living together,” Rob said.

“I honestly I'm so over it. If I don't care then that's exactly where she wants me to be and I'm completely content with that. And I'm just preparing myself.”

Offering her advice to Rob, Khloe can be heard telling him: “Well you feel unappreciated and I don't think she realises the affect it has on you but you also can't put all of that on her shoulders, you know?”

She added: “You've gotta do your own thing, you've gotta be strong on your own two feet and you gotta like do you for you, so no matter what you'll always be OK.”

The frustrated father-to-be said: “I'm not doing nothing wrong. I'm doing exactly what she wants. So I don't know what I need to do. It's just a lot of this s—t. I don't know…I just don't.”

Rob then hangs up and Khloe says she's concerned because she doesn't want her brother to go “backwards” after being so happy and making so much progress.

Later in the show, Kris Jenner told Kim and Khloe that Rob refuses to talk to pregnant Chyna.

“I talked to Chyna and it scared me because it was everything that we had experienced with him, she was experiencing the same thing,” Kris said.

“So she wrote me last night and she said, 'Can I see you tomorrow? I just really need to talk to you, Rob won't talk to me.'”

Kim was concerned about the child that the couple are expecting, as the mother-of-two asked: “Is he ever gonna see his kid though, or is she gonna take it?”
