Sex in a Mosque? Wow

This item caught my attention but not because of the sex:-

Kenya: Kenyan couple jailed for having sex inside a Mosque

Nairobi, 10/10 - A Kenyan court Monday sentenced a couple to 18 months in prison each for having sexual relations inside a Mosque at Gilgil, about 100-km northwest of Nairobi.

Naivasha Senior Magistrate John Kingori called the act by Peter Kimani and Jennifer Wairimu, "abominable" to religion and dismissed their plea for leniency.

The couple, caught in the act 3 October, claimed they were under the influence of alcohol.

Kimani said he thought he was inside a hotel room while Wanjiru claimed she was too drunk to remember what happened.


You should know that Muslims aren't supposed to imbibe intoxicating beverages so they were caught out on a 'double-play'.

Of course, since this is an Angolan newspaper and the crime took place in Kenya, one can't be too sure about its authenticity.

But more important, Gilgil was the site of a British detention camp for members of the Jewish underground liberation forces fighting the oppressive Mandate regime.
