A man who recently converted to Islam was whipped up to 40 times by strangers who broke into his Australia home to punish him for drinking, Seven Network reports.
The 31-year-old Australian man, whose name was not released, told police that he woke up to four bearded men in his bedroom around 1 a.m, the network reported.
Three of the men reportedly restrained him on the bed while a fourth used a cable to lash him in an attack that lasted about 30 minutes, the network reported.
The attack was allegedly by fundamental Wahabi Mulsims. "This criminal act has no place in Islam. As Australian Muslims we are require to follow Australian law, not to take the law into our own individual hands," Ahmed Kilami, a member of the Muslim Village told the network.
