A woman allegedly gang-raped in Indonesia's Aceh as a punishment for sleeping with a married man may still be caned for the affair under the province's laws, an fficial said Tuesday.
A group of eight men allegedly carried out the sex assault last week on the 25-year-old widow at her house in Langsa in East Aceh district, and also beat up the man with whom she is accused of having an affair.
After the attack, which also saw the couple doused with sewage, the pair were handed over to officials.
Ibrahim Latif, head of Langsa's Islamic Sharia law office, said both the man, 40, and woman still face up to nine lashes of the cane in public over the affair.
"We want the couple to be caned for violating sharia on adultery," he told AFP.
He added that the rapists "will also be brought to justice".
Police have arrested three suspected rapists including a 13-year old boy, while the five others are still on the run.
Aceh, on the northern tip of the western island of Sumatra, was granted the right to use Islamic law more than a decade ago in a bid to give the province more autonomy and end a long-running separatist insurgency.

While it ain’t pretty, this isn’t full-scale syariah, as practiced in Saudi Arabia, where convicted adulterers are stoned to death.

They could be forced to live like animals on dirt floors in mud huts.
That will teach them. Or let them develop nukes. Maybe send them money?
Or how about we all die, then they will not have to jihad ever again. Yea, That's how to stop them. Kill all non-muslims.
There is no placating the Islamic Cult of Satan, death is their wish,
so that wish should be granted.

How do you solve a problem like sharia? Make it illegal and punishable by death.

Because the spanish looked at the Jews as collaborators with the Muslims for centuries of terrible oppression.

That's how to stop them. Kill all non-muslims.Would not work. They'd start killing each other over who was the right type of muslim. Example: Shiite vs Sunni...
