Muslim Body Punishes Female Model for Drinking Beer
Kuala Lumpur, August 24: A Muslim model, Malaysia's first woman to face caning for drinking beer in public, got a temporary reprieve as her punishment has been postponed till after the fasting month of Ramadan.
Kartika Shukarno, 32, a part time model and a permanent resident of Singapore, was sentenced to six strokes of the cane last month by a religious court for drinking beer as consumption of alcohol is forbidden under the country's Shariah law.
