A Saudi Arabian blogger has been publicly flogged after being convicted of cyber crime and insulting Islam, BBC reports. Raif Badawi, who was sentenced to 1,000 lashesand 10 years in jail, was flogged 50 times.

The flogging will be carried out weekly, campaigners say.

Mr Badawi, the co-founder of a now banned website called the Liberal Saudi Network, was arrested in 2012. Rights groups condemned his conviction and the US appealed for clemency.

On Thursday state department spokeswoman Jen Psaki urged the Saudi authorities to "cancel this brutal punishment" and to review his case.

In addition to his sentence, Mr Badawi was ordered to pay a fine of 1 million riyals ($266,000; £175,000).

In 2013 he was cleared of apostasy , which could have carried a death sentence.

Last year Mr Badawi's lawyer was sentenced to 15 years in prison after being found guilty of a range of offences in an anti-terrorism court, the Associated Press news agency reported.

The flogging took place outside a mosque in the Red Sea city of Jeddah after Friday prayers, witnesses said.

AFP news agency, quoting people at the scene, said Mr Badawi arrived at the mosque in a police car and had the charges read out to him in front of a crowd.

He was then made to stand with his back to onlookers and whipped, though he remained silent, the witnesses said.

Have ever noticed a real Muslim, you could see the wickedness on their faces.
Islam is evil and everyone knows it. Their is no peace and joy in their countries. their women are slaves and put at the background.
Their mentor killed as much as possible during his time, and every follower wants to be like his master.
So they are just like their master, nothing else.

Was Mohammed born of a woman? Did Mohammed live with flesh and blood? Was there conscience in Mohammed when he had not died and gone to HELL? What the devil Mohammed was made up of? According to the news, the blogger was cleared of Apostasy in 2013, which would have earned him a death penalty. APOSTASY means, converting from Islam. What an occultism? If Islam were a religion of God as claimed, why would continuous membership not be voluntary? You don't dare denounce cultism and be allowed to live. What a satanic religion? Think of what the world would have being without Islam. A peaceful place you know? It hurts me when a gullibly deceived person proclaim that islam is a religion of peace. May be they meant to say, a religion of piece. I pity the fools that are not wise enough to debunk the falsehood of Islam. Walk on the streets to see how dirty and unkept they look. The masquerade of women the keep. The fact is, there is no peaceful Muslim. They all have violent tendency. What is peaceful in killing, maiming, raping, forcefully adapting women and children, denying people their freedom of expression etc. Is that the Islamic definition of peace? Some would tell you that those perpetrating those heinous and dastardly acts are not true Muslims. Which religion practises sharia? Which religion says ' allah akbar' which religion sees the satanic book called qoran as a holy book and the Hadith as the life of the satanic prophet Mohammed? I weep if I keep writing.

If that is the Law over there. Then so be it. Committing a blaspheme against the religion of the state is criminal. Same applies in the Jewish state.
I've seen numerous sentimental hypocrites comment, but their non - objectivity holds no water.
