A 19-years-old Indonesian man reportedly collapsed after he was flogged nearly 150 times on Thursday, November 26, for raping a child in a province where public whipping is regarded as punishment for violating Islamic law.
According to insights gathered from Daily Mail, the suspect cried out and grimaced as a masked Sharia officer lashed his back with a rattan stick at Idi.
While he pleaded for the punishment to stop, he was briefly treated by doctors as the flogging restarted.

He was sentenced to 146 lashes, a high number reportedly reserved for the most serious crimes.
