Saudi Arabia to 'lash, imprison' extremist feminists
Lawyers believe lashing and imprisonment are among the punitive measure facing Saudi citizens found guilty of engaging in homosexuality and feminism.
Saudi Arabia’s counter-extremism department announced the move on Twitter, where it warned its citizens and nationals to remain cautious against such groups.
"Extremism in all its forms is a societal scourge. It is important to remain cautious,” the statement said, before warning against hardliners who break away from religion to affirm their views.
The accompanied 1-minute explained video then goes on to list what is perceived to be extreme, including atheism, feminism, homosexuality and pornography.
