In Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates, a couple caught having sex out of wedlock have been sentenced to each receive 100 lashes and then will be deported.

According to The Gulf News, the Sharjah Sharia Court ordered the woman, a maid from the Phillipines, and her lover, a resident of Bangladesh, to be lashed 100 times and deported for unlawful sex.
In addition to deportation and lashing, the Bangladeshi could also receive a year in jail for entering the residence belonging to the woman’s sponsor without permission. In order to work in the UAE, foreigners must be sponsored by their employer.
The woman’s sponsor reported the incident to police after seeing the man leave his house. After their arrest, the couple admitted to having sex.
According to Sharia law, Muslim adulterers who are also foreigners may be lashed and deported — non-Muslims may be jailed and then deported. Both the Filiplina woman and her Bangladeshi lover are Muslims.
