Couples flogged 20 lashes for committing adultery (Photos)

Four couples were publicly flogged up to 20 lashes for having sex outside of marriage in Indonesia.

The couples were publicly flogged in the ultra-conservative Aceh province governed by Sharia law on Monday, March 8.

The punishment was handed over to the couple after they were checked by medical officials before they were escorted in handcuffs to the rug where they knelt to receive the lashings.

The brutal punishment was handed out by a hooded cane-wielding enforcer who could not be seen.
