75-year-old widow to be flogged
Just across the boarder, something unspeakable will happen:
The sentencing of a widow to 40 lashes for mingling with two young men has sparked new criticism of Saudi Arabia.
Khamisa Sawadi, who is Syrian but was married to a Saudi, was convicted and sentenced last week for meeting with men who were not her immediate relatives.
The two men, including one who was Mrs Sawadi's late husband's nephew, were reportedly bringing her bread. They were also found guilty and sentenced to prison terms and lashes.
There may be another side to the story, but I seriously doubt it.
