Saudi Arabia: Man to receive 8,000 lashes for daughter's rape
(AKI) - A Saudi court has sentenced a man to ten years in prison and 8,000 lashes after he was found guilty of sexual violence against his daughter. According to a report in the Saudi newspaper, al-Shams, the 40-year-old man was arrested recently when he was allegedly found to be raping a young girl who later turned out to be his daughter.
The police noticed there was something strange going on inside the vehicle and went towards it to check what was happening. "I discovered the man while he was having sex with the girl," a police officer said. " Having realised what was going on, I arrested him and took him to the police station in the al-Azizia district." The man, who was reportedly separated from his wife, suffers from psychological problems and was immediately sent to a court in Mecca where he was sentenced. Posted by: Fred 2009-02-19 |
