Imam arrested after flogged woman dies in Bangladesh | News.com.au
In one of the most notorious cases, a 16-year-old girl who was raped was given 101 lashes in January for conceiving during the assault.
The girl’s father was also fined and was told that the family would be branded outcasts from their village if he did not pay. The 20-year-old rapist was pardoned.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who has vowed to eradicate Islamic militancy, has warned of “zero tolerance” for Sharia punishments.
How can a victim be punished and a perpetrator be pardoned? Inhumane, unfair in one word barbaric.
How can someone justify this type of judgment and accept such act of injustice?
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is a brave man, hopefully many more decent men will stand up to such barbaric acts of injustice.
Australia can never accept Sharia law.
