An Indonesian woman has been flogged 100 times in Aceh province for adultery while the male involved, who denied the accusations, received just 15 lashes.
Ivan Najjar Alavi, the head of the general investigation division at the East Aceh prosecutors’ office, said the court handed down a harsher sentence for the woman after she confessed to investigators she had sex outside of her marriage.
Judges found it difficult to convict the man, who was then the head of the East Aceh fishery agency and also married, because he denied all wrongdoing, Alavi said.
Aceh is the only region in Muslim-majority Indonesia to impose sharia law, which allows whipping for charges including gambling, adultery, drinking alcohol and gay sex.
As an alternative ruling, the judges found the married man guilty of “showing affection to a female partner who is not his wife” after the couple were caught at a palm oil plantation in 2018.
He was initially sentenced to 30 lashes but his successful appeal at the sharia supreme court in Aceh reduced the sentence to 15.
The woman’s flogging was briefly paused because she could not bear the pain, according to an Agence France-Presse reporter in the field.

They don’t use the same size cane on women that they do on men. Considerably smaller and lighter.
Let’s hear some more stories about barbaric America and our awful penal system.
How about many dozens of people being thrown in cages for over 1 year for walking through a building?
Totally explains the disparaging treatment between Democrats and Republicans in America.
Those crazy Muslims.
How much of this is symbolic to please the Islamic hardliners?
In the video it appears they are just lightly tapping her
And some didn’t even get near the building
I guess I can't comprehend why any media outlet wastes time on such articles when the vile, sexist, racist, disgusting, homophobic, xenophobic, evil U.S. has always been, and still is, far worse. (Well, that's what all the Democrat politicians say, at least). Even Republican Senator Ted Cruz called "January 6" a grave "terrorist" attack against the U.S. by Republicans and Trump supporters. And the hyena equated "January 6" to Pearl Harbor and 9/11. Both the hyena and Ted Cruz can't be wrong, can they?

Ain’t Islam grand
Well...because she likes it. It’s not punishment to her.
If she had dressed appropriately, this wouldn't have happened in the first place.
Where is Gloria Steinem? That Allred dame? Why aren’t they there fighting for women’s rights? /s
When can we read about Ilhan Omar’s flogging?
Hmm.. The ‘picture rule’ fails to determine guilt or innocence.
Hmm.. The ‘picture rule’ fails to determine guilt or innocence.
Nonsense, she is a woman so she is guilty...it’s Islam.
Yep, all I hear are crickets.
Catholics are misogynist because we want to protect the soon to be born babies that the abortion mills want to kill.
But never a word about Muslims that do things like this or behead teenage daughters that dare to date a non-Muslim. Also, the testimony of woman in the Muslim world only worth half that of a man. Oh, I should mention that a woman can not appear in public with out her husband or a male relative in the Muslim world.
Christians are horrible but Muslims are just fine.
...walking through a building they own!
-—caught in a palm oil plantation——? Obviously more to this story. Were they not supposed to be there? Was palm oil involved in whatever they were doing? Were they up a palm tree? They couldn’t get a room at The Palms Motel Rt. 69?-——so many missing details——All I’m saying is they should have gotten the same beating just for getting caught doing whatever they did.
You got to give it to those jihadis:
they sure know how to keep their women in line.
(a remark to share whenever you hear any talking about “islamophobia”)
