Indonesian Woman Savagely Flogged In Public For Having Sex Outside Marriage. Photos

These horrific pictures show an Indonesian woman being savagely whipped in a public lashing for reportedly having sex outside of marriage. Shocking images captured the brutal punishment, carried out in the Aceh province of Indonesia, which uses a strict form of Sharia law.

Under the law, men and women are forbidden to have sexual relations outside of wedlock.

And by way of punishment, the woman was subjected to a painful public flogging from state officials.

Deputy mayor Zainal Arifin told local media: "Caning sentences have been enforced many times in the city of Banda Aceh. "This proves that the government and the people of Banda Aceh are committed to implementing and enforcing the sharia."

Aceh has special autonomous status and is the only province in Indonesia to adopt Islamic law.

It introduced Sharia law after being granted special autonomy in 2001.
