Prisons Dept waiting for order to cane
KAJANG: The Prisons Department is ready to cane Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarno for drinking beer in July last year.
Deputy Home Minister Datuk Wira Abu Seman Yusop said, however, that the punishment could only be executed after the department received the order from the Syariah Court.
“The department has trained officers to carry out the whipping and they are just waiting for the directive to do so,” he told a news conference after a Prisons Management Course certificate presentation here yesterday.
Kartika, 32, of Sungai Siput, Perak, was fined RM5,000 and ordered to be given six strokes of the cane by the Kuantan Syariah High Court on July 20, after she pleaded guilty to consuming beer at the Cherating Bay Lounge, Hotel Legend, Cherating, on July 11. — Bernama
