Khurts is a Mongolian thug. The British Government is correct in extraditing this man to Germany to face the German judicial system which I am certain will find him guilty of his crimes and put him behind bars where he belongs. Is the alternative to return him to Mongolia where he will run further amok and cause even more trouble? From the ridiculous comments and slogans written on posters displayed outside the British Embassy, they further support opinions that the Mongols are rich in mineral resources but poor with the grey matter in their oversized heads !!
ReplyDeleteThe British has to release Mr.Kurts immediately . This is the oppressive and impossible act.
