NAIVASHA, Kenya (Reuters) - A couple caught having sex in a Kenyan mosque during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan have been sentenced to 18 months jail for what the judge called an "abominable" affront to religion.

Peter Kimani and Jennifer Wairimu pleaded guilty to the charge of having sex in a place of worship after being caught on October 3 at the Abubakar mosque in Gilgil, about 60 miles north of Nairobi. NEITHER IS MUSLIM!

A worshipper heading for evening prayers found the couple having sex after investigating what the prosecution described as strange noises emanating from a dark corner of the mosque.

Kimani and Wairimu both pleaded for clemency at Monday's hearing, saying they were too drunk to know where they were. Kimani told the court he thought he was in a lodging house.



John King'ori, senior magistrate in nearby Naivasha, dismissed their plea.

"Having sex in a mosque is a most abominable thing to religion and only a custodial sentence can add justice to this," he said.

ANIMALS!!! THEY LUCKY THEY DIDN'T GET THEIR HEAD SHOVED!

What type of alcoholic beverage did he drink? It must be some heavy sh*t for him to confuse a mosque for a lodge. Giriama rum perhaps.

Thats it, only 18 months?

I had sex in the basement of my church, a long time ago.

18 months!!! Talk about ridiculous. They had sex. What's the big deal?

They had sex in a mosque. Thats the big deal.

The nerve of those people. They should be shot.

Nabeela
You are a Muslim right? I'm just checking. Maybe you should go find your Qur'an and a copy of the Hadith, wipe off the dust, and read the focking things!

There are very specific crimes for which one can be given the death penalty. And low and behold, having sex in a Mosque is not one of them.
