Husband Jailed for Wife’s Torture of Maid
Staff Writer
RIYADH, 4 August 2003 — A court in Jeddah sentenced a businessman to three years in prison for the torture inflicted by his wife on their Indonesian maid, a newspaper reported yesterday.
According to Al-Madinah newspaper, Judge Muhammed Amin Mordad said the wife tortured the Indonesian maid “by inserting a heated screwdriver into her genitals.” The paper said that the maid fled this “continuos ill-treatment” and “became hysterical”.
The maid sought refuge in the Indonesian Consulate in Jeddah.
The businessman husband, who did not know about his wife’s torture of the maid, took responsibility for her actions, and was also sentenced to a unspecified number of lashings and ordered to pay $10,000 in damages.
And I thought we were implementing Shari3ah here, why can't they put the heated screwdriver in the wife's genitals?
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
