Egypt Stops Flogging Men in Prison

	posted by Scott on Thursday December 27, @10:06AM from the news dept.
	An Anonymous User sent in this link to a Reuters story which briefly mentions that the practice of flogging men in prison will no longer be used, due to a vote by the Egyptian Parliament. The article did mention that women were never flogged in prisons in the first place, which I thought was interesting.

Morale Improved? (Score:2) by frank h on Thursday December 27, @01:02PM EST (#1) (User #141 Info) I'm sorry. I can't resist: Can we assume then that morale must've improved? (As in: the floggings will continue until morale improves...) I know, I know, it's sick, and I apologize. But I was just hoping to coax a smile in a place where anger sometimes prevails.
