In a country where extra maritial sex between consenting adult hetrosexuals can get a punishment of being stoned to death, the handing down of a sentence by a Pakistani tribunal of a year for the homosexual rape of a minor is surprising.Charlie wrote:Two Paki UN peace keepers in Haiti jailed for raping 14 year old boy
They were let off lightly by Paki army judges even though the victim was a minor. Guess, its a cultural thingy in the Islamic republic that Haitian wouldn't understand.
Two U.N. peacekeepers from Pakistan have been sentenced to a year in prison for raping a 14-year-old Haitian boy after being convicted in a Pakistani military trial in Haiti, authorities said on Monday.
U.N. spokeswoman Sylvie Van Den Wildenberg said judges from a Pakistani military tribunal came to the impoverished Caribbean nation to hold the trial that resulted in the conviction last week of the peacekeepers. They were found guilty in the rape of the boy in the northern city of Gonaives on January 20.
The two soldiers, who have not been identified by name, were summarily discharged from the military and sentenced to a year behind bars in their homeland, the U.N. spokeswoman said.
Is this lenient sentence because Mohammadden religious Shariah law has some inbuilt clause that automatically reduces sentences for personnel belonging to the Army of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan?
Or is it because homosexual rape of non Mohammadden Kaafir minors has some inbuilt leeway in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan’s Mohammadden religious Shariah law based penal system?
