Meulaboh - One of the former convicted lashers of a gambling case in West Aceh, spoke up about the caning at the Penitentiary (Lembaga Pelasatanatan / Rutan), which is governed by the Governor Regulation (Pergub) of Aceh Number 5 of 2018.
This media requested his response, Monday (30/04/2018), not intend to leverage the punishment he had undergone, Thursday, 30 November 2017 ago. His name is June (32), on this media confess. Related to the caning in public will be a shame effect. "The shit is not playing," June said.
Still said June. "What is clearly a shame, let alone who has a family, it is seen by his son. Of course it's the most valuable lesson. So, its impact to repeat the act is not possible anymore because of shame, "he said. Instead the man confessed, if the caning punishment carried out in prisons, he considered little influence on those who violate the Shari'a. Because only the offenders bear the risks.
But if in a public place, will think twice to repeat the same deeds. And if in public one lesson for others, if doing something this the risk of being whipped in public, obviously the former six-time prisoner convicted.
The reason, if the caning punishment in prisons, how many people know that the person has been punished by a whip. "In prison how many people know. Although spelled public place but limited, "he said.
He also commented that the implementation of sharia law has nothing to do with the alleged violations of human rights. "If human rights with the Shari'a is different. So, I think the caning punishment has no effect on human rights, "he explained.
June asserted, the implementation of sharia law how the provisions of such sharia law. He thinks that, not because he has been serving the general public whip, but if there are rules do not change again. "Not because I've been whipped in public, that's not the point," he said.
