KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 26 — Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarno, who has been sentenced to six lashes of the cane for drinking beer in a Kuantan hotel, has garnered a lot of international and local attention.

At this point in time, the caning has been delayed in view of the fasting month, Ramadhan, but the sentence will be meted out after the month is over. At the time of writing, the Pahang Syariah Court of Appeal is seeking to revise the sentence.
