As a punishment if found guilty, I suggest the removal of his own proboscis. With a dull machete.

I swear I read rhino porn.

I believe rhino horn is a aphrodisiac...so maybe it was all for his personal use.

He is a businessman, to be fair.  His business is illegal that's all.

Horrible, horrible c***!

Business man? I thought he was reported by the BBC &CNN as Elephant Tusks smuggler too .I wonder what other "snuff" he is doing business in???

From my understanding, The Police did not gather the evidence but the anti trafficking org gathered enough evidence which overwhelmed those who couldn't and there was no escape or avoidance but to charge Bach or back? he sounds famous anyway if not h ?
