Two Indonesian Women Whipped 100 Times For Sex Work

Aceh province is the only region in Muslim-majority Indonesia to impose Islamic sharia law, which allows flogging for a range of offences including prostitution, gambling, adultery, drinking alcohol, and gay sex.

The punishment delivered in Langsa city where dozens gathered to watch the lashing of the pair.

The two hijab-wearing suspects were arrested in March along with five sex workers.

The five others could also face flogging if found guilty of violating Islamic law, said Aji Asmanuddin, head of Langsa’s Islamic sharia agency.

Asmanuddin said:

They punished for violating sharia by advertising (sex) through the internet
Officials were struggling to crack down on the area’s booming online sex trade.
This is the first (pimping) case in Langsa although we believe there are many of them out there.
We just don’t have the necessary tools to monitor them online
