Court says prisoner can't go home for sex

File this one under 'Nice try.' But don't feel sorry for imprisoned Firozkhan Zafarkhan, who petitioned an Indian court for bail so he could go home and have sex with his wife. He and his wife are burning with desire, explained Zafarkhan, because they haven't had sex in over 30 months and, as a Muslim, he isn't allowed to have sex with anyone but his wife. Of course, they haven't had sex for over 30 months because that's how long Zafarkhan has been in jail. Why is he in jail? Because he's accused of setting fire to a train carrying Hindu pilgrims, burning 59 men, women and children to death.
