Unbelievable. Just unbelievable.
You’re right. Absolutely unbelievable! I’m still scratching my head over this one.
What A JOKE. Now I know you are not fan of the Islamic punishment for slandering (the cellphone lashing in KSA) but I wonder if the Shariah punishment for this guy’s crime of “MURDER” might be more suiting?
Princess,
While I am no fan of excessive punishment, I still believe in justice and punishment for offenders. I am NOT against capital punishment (when warranted) but in this case the man did not kill anyone. I’m just trying to understand how someone could receive only 15 days in jail for STABBING another human being.
