By Brody Levesque (Washington DC) Sept 19 | Recently enacted legislation from an ultra conservative province, Aceh, of the island archipelago nation of Indonesia, provides for the following measures to be imposed at sentencing for the criminal act of being homosexual:
"Any person deliberately performing homosexuality or lesbianism is threatened with up to 100 cane lashes and a maximum fine of 1,000 grams of fine gold, or imprisonment of up to 100 months."
This comes from reports published by The Jakarta Post and The Associated Press.
This same piece of legislation also provided for capital punishment for those convicted of adultery, (by stoning) rape, paedophilia, and premarital sex.
