Prosecution not possible for Candeumy

It has been revealed today that police arrested a man last month when he was discovered engaged in the unusual, sexually perverted practice of Candeumy. However, it transpired that legislation for this particular form of sexual deviancy has never been put on the statute book. One of the arresting officers, speaking privately, said: “It was bad enough finding this particular individual performing this obscene act but to find out later from the prosecuting authorities that we had to release him without charge: it made me sick to my stomach. Something has to be done quickly to rectify the situation.” The specialist lawyer Victor Gollast confirmed the legal loophole: “It's one of those omissions in the law that crop up now and again. The practice of Candeumy is sufficiently rare that the legislation to deal with it has never been drafted, let alone passed into law.”
