Kelantan woman whips man who raped her daughter
An enraged mother publicly whipped the man who raped her 13-year-old daughter.
A video of the incident on Thursday in Kelantan, Malaysia, has gone viral.
In it, the woman is seen flogging a man, whose limbs are tied up, with what looks like a tree branch or a cane.
His pants have been pulled down to expose his buttocks, reported The Rakyat Post.
The man, reported to be in his 30s, was admitted to hospital for a blood clot in his head and was later discharged, reported The Star Online.
He and a 22-year-old raped a teen several times on May 22.
Police said the mother of the teen may be prosecuted for her actions.
“People should not take the law into their own hands even if they believe they are right to do so," they said in a statement.
“They must leave it to the police to act. In this case, we hope that the woman and the others seen in the video will surrender themselves before they are arrested.”
