RIYADH: In a shocking incident in Saudi Arabia, a preacher who confessed to raping and beating his 5-year-old daughter to death was let off without any jail term and was only fined 200,000 riyals for his heinous crime.

The fine is the 'blood money' that is to be paid to compensate the victim's relatives. Islamic law specifies that the 'blood money' can be paid in lieu of the death penalty.

Since the victim was a girl, the fine for the preacher, one Fayhan al-Ghamdi, was reduced to half the usual amount.

There is no clarity on this yet, but reports suggest that the money may have been offered to the girl's mother or some other relatives.

Ghamdi confessed to the crime and said he used a cane and cables to beat his daughter up. The justification the man gave for this was that he doubted that his 5-year-old daughter, Lama Ghamdi, was a virgin. He also forced her into undergoing a medical inspection.

The judgment has sparked off a major public outrage in Saudi Arabia, especially on the Internet where online campaigns demanding harsher punishment for the monstrous crime.

Reports said that as far back as in December 2011, the little child was hospitalised with a crushed skull, broken ribs and limbs, heavy bruising and burn marks. The hospital, reports stated, also said that the child had been raped.

According to an agency report, the hospital said that the child's 'rectum had been torn open and the abuser had attempted to burn it closed'.

The child died in October 2012 because of her grave injuries and in November the father was arrested.
The judge ruled that the fine and the time that the man had spent in prison after his arrest were enough punishment.

Fayhan al-Ghamdi is a regular guest on television programmes in Saudi Arabia.

I don't even have words for how messed up this is. I say give his wife a weapon and look the other way while she doles out real justice.

If the daughter survived they probably would have stoned her to death for adultery or some shit.

Saudi Preacher Fayhan Al Ghamdi Released after Rape, Torture, and Murder of Five-Year-Old Daughter Lama

Saudi Preacher Fayhan Ghamdi raped, tortured, and murdered his five-year-old daughter Lama. However, a devout Muslim judge ruled that, according to Islamic law, a few months in jail and a payment of $50,000 was punishment enough. Islam requires "blood-money" in such cases, and Ghamdi has paid his blood-money. Now he's free to have another daughter, and to rape, torture, and murder her as well. Welcome to the "justice" of Islam. (But don't complain about Sharia, or you're a racist.)


SAUDI ARABIA--Public anger has gripped Saudi Arabia after a prominent preacher who raped and beat to death his 5-year-old daughter was sentenced to a few months in jail and a $50,000 fine – known as 'blood money' – to compensate the victim's relatives.

According to Islamic law, the 'blood money' can be paid in lieu of the death penalty. The preacher's fine was reportedly half the usual amount because the victim was a girl.

Saudi preacher Fayhan Ghamdi, a frequent guest on Muslim TV networks, confessed to using cables and a cane to inflict the injuries, AFP reported, quoting activists from the group, ‘Women to Drive.’

Ghamdi reportedly doubted that his daughter, Lama Ghamdi, was a virgin, and forced her to undergo a medical inspection.

In December 2011, Lama was admitted to hospital with multiple injuries, including a crushed skull, broken ribs and left arm, and extensive bruising and burns, according to the activist group. Hospital worker Randa Kaleeb said that the girl's back was broken, and that she had been raped "everywhere." The hospital told the victim's mother that her child's “rectum had been torn open and the abuser had attempted to burn it closed,” AFP reported on Saturday.

In October 2012, the girl died from her injuries. The following November, the father was arrested. The judge ruled that the "blood money and the time the defendant had served in prison since Lama's death suffices as punishment," activists reported.

*WHAT A FUCKING LOONEY! HE DIDN'T BELIEVE SHE WAS A VIRGIN AT 5 YEARS OLD!?!?!?!?!?!?

And, the injuries in 2011 were not suspicious at all?!?!?!*

I'm so disgusted and repulsed by this pos that I'm about to vomit. A 5 year old little girl not being a virgin????? Raping a 5 year old should be instantaneous death.
