A court of appeals has confirmed the ruling of a lower court sentencing a man to 30 lashes for slapping his wife and spitting on her last week.
The citizen, who has not been named by the local media, was jailed for a week after assaulting his wife by slapping and spitting at her face in the Eastern Province, according to online news website Sabq.
According to the report, the brother of the wife had filed a formal complaint with authorities reporting the assault on his sister by her husband who had allegedly hit her twice on the face.
According to the details of the case presented in court, the husband has confessed to the assault and justified hitting his wife after she had "gone out of the house several times without seeking his permission."
The judge reportedly issued an order for the wife to abide by her husband's request not to leave the house without his permission but he also ordered the husband to one week's jail time and 30 lashes for having broken the law on assault.
The ruling was applauded by many users on social media as a step in the right direction in ending domestic violence in Saudi Arabia.

Yes, but what you didn't include in the report was that she'd gone out to sh@g the guy next door ... and then gone shopping for a new dress.
Christ, why did she want to waste money on a new dress. No wonder he was angry. |

Thanks for the enlightenment. I lived in Tehran in the late 70s (before the US abandoned the Shah - idiots) and none of the Iranian ladies offered me any "comfort". Some wore chadors (full length black curtains also covering hair and head). Mate reckoned all they had on underneath was stockings and suspenders ... but I think he was only guessing??? |

I heard that too from arab colleahues in saudi,the daring ones used to enjoy the risk of being stopped by the religious police ! Always wanted to go to Iran but the revolution stopped me when I ws short listed. A great city they all said,those who moved onto Suadi in 1979.

I lived in Tehran in 2005 working for AGIP ...some of the Iranian women are very beautiful, cocking a snook at the religious Police they'd wear a big shock of hair out of the front of their hijab and plaster masses of make up on. Yes ...some women are available but whilst I was there - they hung five guys in the local square reputedly Rapists and drug dealers.

Ah, the ability of a medieval religion that can update its techniques to incorporate the very modern technology that it despises ! Hypocrites ?
