See the ones condemning islam and another country. You have a whole lots of barbarism going on in the country you called Nigeria, where police can shoot you over just #20 without judicial proceedings. But you so much concerned about indonesia?. You fellows don’t even know your priority.
So it is their country. Leave them alone. What is a crime in Kinshasa may not be crime in Abakaliki. Take USA for instance, you can go to jail for dog fighting. It is a serious crime. Yet, they do wrestlemania which some countries consider to be violent act.
But in Nigeria and many other countries, they have a game called “ram fighting”. This is considered a crime in the USA. So pls, leave the people alone and mind your shthole country. Indonesia is by far advanced than you. Just bcus it is called Sharia court doesn’t mean Islam supports punishment for playing video games.**********************
