Indonesia Allows Islamic Cleric to Marry 12-Year-Old...

Cleric successfully defended himself saying the marriage was allowed by his religion!


An Indonesian court has acquitted controversial Muslim cleric Pujiono Cahyo Widianto over child sexual molestation charges for marrying an underage girl, aged 12 last year. Widianto risked up to 15 years in jail, had he been convicted of the charges. Prosecutors said they would appeal the court ruling. The girl is his second wife.

After hearing the charges and the plea from the legal team of Pujiono alias Syech Puji, 43, led by top lawyer O.C. Kaligis, presiding judge Hari Mulyanto deemed the charges unclear and inaccurate, meaning the trial could not proceed.

"The defendant is acquitted of the charges and should be released from detention," Hari told the trial at the Ungaran District Court, Central Java, which was open to the public.

Prosecutors had charged Pujiono, a wealthy brassware entrepreneur and owner of Miftahul Jannah Islamic boarding school in Jambu district of violating the 2002 law on child protection and article 290 of Indonesia's Criminal Code on child molestation for marrying an underage girl, Lutfiana Ulfa, just 12 years old and still an eighth grader, in August, 2008.

Pujiono's second wife, Lutfiana, and his first wife, Ummi Hani, also present in court, greeted the acquittal joyously and cried.

Prosecutors said they would file an appeal. "We will redraft the charges immediately and file an appeal," said prosecutor Didik Djoko Ady after the trial. He said the judges should have proceeded with the trial and heard the charges.

"Instead the judges acquitted the defendant and ended the trial," said Didik. He added his team would rework the indictments and resubmit them to the court.

The marriage became a controversial public issue, with the cleric defending himself by saying the marriage was allowed by his religion.

    you people don't know anything about the true Islam! The problem is that you listen to the *WRONG PEOPLE* who in addition haven't got a clue what they're talking about! People nowadays are being involved in SINS and deviating from true Islam making it look awful and devastating! I'm a Muslim, and I follow what God have said in the Holy Quran ONLY! and not what the sick bastards nowadays proclaim what Islam is. The Quran taught me to respect all religions and believe in them. Therefore if you really want to know what Islam is, just read the Quran, it's the only RIGHT source. here is a website for a Quran translated in English: http://www.jannah.org/qurantrans/

    It is only mere over generalization. If an American steals money from a French. Here the French say, "All Americans are thieves!" Which is wrong.
    This applies to Islam and other religions.
    The principals of Islam made and still make the world a better place. If one unbeliever Muslim did something bad, we jump in to the generalization that the religions caused him to do so and so.
    I agree with one of the comments that the rates of crime and rape in the Muslim world is far less than rich, advanced 1st-world and powerful countries. If only the Islamic countries have the money and power , crimes will almost vanish from society.
    Read about Islam from truthful sources and sites. Be ware there are lots of ani-islam sites that mislead and diverge the truth.
    Thanks
