Westbury: Discipline and bare-bottom canings

Product Information

The birch would be made from fresh hazel switches, about 2-3 feet long, bound together at the thick end.

Harun bin Ripin, one of the two robbers charged with the robbery and murder of 58-year-old Poon Sai Im, a widow who lived on Pulau Ubin. I like the sound as the birch whistles through the air, although the 'crack' as contact is made on bare flesh is not as distinct as the cane because not all switches land at exactly the same time and some get in the way of others.If the punishment becomes too painful to bear, use of the word by the recipient will terminate the punishment immediately. I will tell him that I am not still not happy with the way he is taking his punishment, and that further punishment will be administered when I have had time to consider what he deserves.

Caning is also a mandatory punishment for certain offences such as rape, drug trafficking, illegal moneylending, [17] and for foreigners who overstay by more than 90 days – a measure designed to deter illegal immigrants. I understand that, while the early strokes might be bearable, the build-up of pain as the birching progresses can be quite pronounced. It is essential that clenching his bottom cheeks together is made absolutely impossible because when the tawse tips find their way into his bottom cleft - my goodness, how hard he tries!He would never be able to release himself during punishment, and if he tried I would see it and put a stop to it, then add severe penalties, but we do have the peace of mind that he could eventually free himself if anything happened to me. After his release in 2008, Bala committed seven robberies and at least three sexual assaults, and he was arrested and sentenced to 42 years in jail and 24 strokes of the cane. If he is too near the prisoner, the tip of the cane will fall beyond the buttocks and the force of the stroke will cause the unsupported tip to dip and bend the cane and thus reduce the effect of the stroke.

Stilwell Ong Keat Pin, an 18-year-old gang leader who masterminded a fatal gang attack that led to the death of 19-year-old Darren Ng Wei Jie in October 2010. I've even had a neighbour in for tea and scones while Robert was secured over the whipping bench upstairs, waiting for a caning. He stands barefooted on the trestle base and bends over a padded horizontal crossbar on one side of the trestle, with the crossbar adjusted to around his waist level. If the paddle is applied again, it will most likely make contact with the same circular area of the bottom, so the build-up of pain is likely to be intense. I've developed an entertaining method of cleaning up of the mess of birch fragments all over the floor.Robert has drilled a few discreet holes and with the addition of two wooden beams, some bolts, a kneeling platform and some restraining straps, our coffee table can be transformed into a first class whipping bench in about ten minutes.
