    A school kitchen porter in the UK has been arrested over allegations that he poisoned soup which was being served to students and staff.

    The man, employed at a prestigious public school in Buckinghamshire, was arrested after staff became suspicious after noticing a strong chemical odour in the food.

    The porter was arrested at his home on suspicion of intending to endanger life or inflict grievous bodily harm.

    The man has been released on bail but will appear in court in March, when police will present forensic results from tests on the food.

    School kitchen worker accused of poisoning soup

    The man accused of trying to poison others with his food should be fed his own food. Let see him die from eating his own food. That would be what I like to see. What fool wants to poison their own humanity ? Hey man we have lots of problems here on Earth. So why the hell you creating more? All these people try to poison s should be taught a lesson. Make them eat their own food. Let them know that please.

    Gentle people is what we need

    The people of Afghanistan seem to be gentile people. They just stuck in the trouble with outsiders. Outsiders being the Talibans and other terrorist groups. The afghanis are not dumb, so why they not stopping these outsiders from interfering with their livings? Maybe they are feeling they are too weak to handle the situation. But now with all the outside help, why they feel helpless. They need to come out and assist the American soldiers and the others foreign soldiers who die for their cause to free them of these Talibans and other terrorists.
