A 59-year-old Ugandan woman was recently subjected to 10 strokes of the cane after she was allegedly caught having s3x with an 18-year-old man.
According to reports by Daily Monitor, Kedesi Katsigaire who is an alleged s3xual predator was beaten in a bid to discipline her.
The public humiliation follows a cry from women in her locality who had called her out for degrading the dignity of women and even suggested that they would not mind if Ms Katsigaire was practising her dubious behaviour with old men.
“When we entered the suspects’ house, we found the two in bed n*ked and they started to ask for forgiveness…we decided to take them to the parish headquarters where we found the whole community gathered,” Jacenta Kamashengyero, a social worker in the locality said.
However, surprisingly, the local leaders did not object Katsigaire’s punishment of 10 strokes of the cane apart from the stern warning given by the village council chairperson, Nathan Bigirwa.
“When we arrested the two, we looked at all options. Communal work and caning. Ms Katsigaire chose caning and we decided to give her 10 strokes of the cane as a warning to other [older] women,” Mr Bigirwa said.
Kyeizoba’s Sub-County chairperson Mr Victor Taremwa also defended the punishment given out saying it was needed to instil dignity and good behaviour in their people.
Having endured public discipline, Katsigaire has reportedly disappeared from the village.
