Weird justice: Saudi punishes gang rape victim with 200 lashes

As reported in Breitbart via AFP:

A court in the ultra-conservative kingdom of Saudi Arabia is punishing a female victim of gang rape with 200 lashes and six months in jail, a newspaper reported on Thursday.

The 19-year-old woman — whose six armed attackers have been sentenced to jail terms — was initially ordered to undergo 90 lashes for “being in the car of an unrelated male at the time of the rape,” the Arab News reported.

But in a new verdict issued after Saudi Arabia’s Higher Judicial Council ordered a retrial, the court in the eastern town of Al-Qatif more than doubled the number of lashes to 200.

Well it’s a pity, that the Saudi-Arabian king, head of an facist regime, is invited to many European countries and treated like a honorous person. Ridiculous!
