"The Italian employed by a non-governmental organisation (NGO) is still in police custody," spokesman for NAD police Senior Commisioner Jodi Heriyadi said here on Monday. Apart from using narcotinc drugs, Giuseppe also had sex with an Acehnese woman, identified as Wardiana, which was strictly forbidden under local Aceh syariah (Islamic) law. The Italian was arrested by Acehnese Syariah Police at a house in Pulo Kiton, Bireuen village, when he was having sex with his Acehnese girl friend several days ago, said Jodi. Moreover, he was also suspected of using narcotic drugs at that the time of his arrest, and the case was still under police investigation. According to him, the police had contacted the Italian Embassy in Jakarta, but up to now no representative of the embassy had come to Banda Aceh. In the meantime, an Acehnese prominent figure, Teungku Iskandar asked the Aceh Provincial Administration to impose the syariah law on whoever had breached the Islamic law by lashes with a cane. "I hope whoever, including foreigners, who have breached the syariah law must be punished without exception," he said. Under the Syariah Law which is in force in Aceh, it is forbidden for unmarried couples to have sex, also to gamble, drink alcoholic beverages, as well as using narcotic drugs. Those proven guilty must be punished by lashes with the cane, he said.
