Caned for Kissing on TikTok

Banda AcehCaned 21 times each, publicly, for a kiss.

Aceh’s Sharia law bans unmarried intimacy; religious police tracked the couple’s TikTok livestream and caned them for a car-seat kiss in Indonesia’s only Islamic-law province.

Amnesty International says the caning breaches Indonesia’s Convention Against Torture obligations.
