Letter (in Swahili) from a Tanzanian inmate in a Hong Kong prison

    

English summary:  I am married man, four children, arrested in HK 2013, now serving 21 and a half years, which has been reduced to 14 years and 4 months after guilty plea. I am painfully regretting what I did, and wished I had thought more carefully before I took such a mammoth risk which has completely wrecked my life.
I implore people in Tanzania to be extra careful and not do what I did. Don't bring drugs to China, HK and Macau. Tell others about the danger of so doing. 
I have also informed the public about the arrest of a Mr Jannu who was Omari's right hand man in the China operation. Jannu was responsible for the arrest of dozens of Tanzanian couriers in Hong Kong.
Jannu is Congolese but uses a Tanzanian passport (see previous letters posted on this website). I hope Mr Nzowa of the Tanzanian government can verify this news.
