A Saudi court convicted a man and sentenced him to four months in prison and 90 lashes for kissing a woman in a mall, a government-owned daily reported Thursday: the man, who is in his 20s, was seen with a woman “sitting on one of the chairs, exchanging kisses and hugs.” It was unclear what the other woman was doing. Neither the man nor the women were identified by name.
