Saudi King Pardons Female From Lashing For Driving A Vehicle

Sheima Jastaniah is a Saudi woman who just doesn’t know her place. She actually had the audacity to drive a car the other day! For this cheeky act she was sentenced to 10 lashes on Monday. But King Abdullah showed tremendous generosity yesterday, when he revoked her sentence. I just hope she learned her lesson.

Princess Amira al-Taweel, wife of billionaire Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal and a lady that does know her place, tweeted the following:

Thank God, the lashing of Sheima is cancelled. Thanks to our beloved King. I’m sure all Saudi women will be so happy, I know I am. In tough times we stand together; in good times we celebrate together. I’m proud to be Saudi. To all Active Saudi women thank u for ur efforts.

King Abdullah, who is clearly ill, also announced earlier this week that women would be allowed to vote and to run in upcoming municipal polls.
