    Benedict the Snake

    sounds ok to me

    So she got 15 days in jail of which 5 is already served and they don't think she will have to serve the full 15 days.

    In other words she will be booted out the moment the visas are ready. Seems completely mad but I suppose the Judge had to balance loony local fundamentalist opinion with not making the country as a whole look stupid and so opted for a safe course.

    A bit late for that, I suspect.

    She got the worst possible sentence. She was ordered to Return to the U.K. I wonder if she will appeal?

    About a year ago I read in the news about a islamic woman who got raped by I think it was like 10 men or something. And she got sentenced to 700 lashes for being in the same room as 10 unknown men. But that was in Saudiarabia (they have the Quran as lawbook I think). I don´t mean to offend anyone but islamic laws are just wrong.
    zOMG I´m on Abraxas´ ignore list. My life is over!
