man receives 20 lashes for being gay in bauchi - bbc report.

According to a report by the BBC, a 20 year old man in Bauchi received 20 lashes seven years after he stopped being gay. For real? My head hurts from reading all these. Find the report below...
A Nigerian man has received 20 lashes after an Islamic court in the northern city of Bauchi convicted him of homosexual offences.
Under Islamic law, courts can punish homosexual acts by stoning to death.
But the judge said he took into account that the Muslim man, Mubarak Ibrahim, 20, carried out the acts seven years ago, and had stopped the practice.
