So the trial was resolved in favor of the bad guy, as apparently he had a legal right to the land which was determined by tracing back his lineage and the distribution of land that happened over time. Not as much wrongdoing going on as we suspected, although he's still a sinister guy that didn't treat his aunt very well. I had a day off yesterday, and used it to relax and throw a frisbee around. Today we went to meet with the union council chairman, who is pretty angry about a lot of things, including India and secular law. We went to the town of Bogra, where we visited a ruined Buddhist monastery and saw some archaeological artifacts. We dined on Chinese food in town, which was a welcome respite from the fare we've been having at the RDA every day. Having trouble keeping up with everything going on around the world, but sounds like Haiti's in a bad state right now...
