This reminds me of the story of the Englishman, traveling in Russia. His son attended a boarding school back in England. While he was on his trip, the school wired a message "Your son suspended for childish prank."
The message was duly translated to Russian, transmitted oversees, then translated back to English for the father to read. And what he read was "Your son hanged for juvenile delinquency."
