An Indonesian woman who was gang raped after being accused of having an extramarital affair reportedly is facing a public caning for the offense.

“We want the couple to be caned because they violated the religious bylaw on sexual relations,” Ibrahim Latif, the head of the Shariah office in the town of Langsa, said, according to Jakarta Globe.

The woman reportedly was raped by eight men and three have been arrested, including a 13-year-old boy. The woman and the man she reportedly had the affair with were hit with sewage.

The problem is that we don’t really know if the sex with the married man was consensual. If he had any influence(money)he could claim it was consensual in order to avoid rape charges and the authorities would go along with it.

I’m afraid I don’t see the enormous injustice here.

Your post is proof positive there are loons on FR.

A woman is gang raped and then publicly caned for it, and you see nothing wrong with that. Wonder if you would be of the same opinion if that was someone in your family. (Doubt it)
