Caning was merely a lesson to others, says exco


KUALA TERENGGANU: The caning of the two women for committing same-sex act is carried out as a lesson to others to stay away from wrongdoing, says Terengganu state exco for Syariah implementation, education and higher education Satiful Bahri Mamat (pic).

“Their acceptance of the punishment showed that they have repented,” he told a press conference here after the sentence was carried out yesterday.
