The son of legendary Malaysian actress Azean Irdawaty faces a lengthy sentence should he be found guilty of smuggling meth into Indonesia via his bum earlier this year.

Khaeryll Benjamin Ibrahim, known to many as Benjy, is looking at a 14-year long stint in Indonesian prison, including an 800 million rupiah fine (RM251,389), according to The Jakarta Post.

On Wednesday, prosecutor Maria F Tarigan demanded lengthy punishment for Benjy, who had been involved in various drugs offenses in Malaysia before being busted by Kualanamu International Airport authorities on April 18. Stopped and thoroughly searched, officers found 4.5 grams of crystal meth nestled snugly up his bum.

Benjy is to address the court personally next week.

Remember kids, the long arm of the law will always catch up with you, and when it does, can reach into some interesting places.
