A thousand spectators watched as the men were whipped five times with a bamboo-like cane in Aceh province, on the Indonesian island of Sumatra.
Some of the crowd could be seen taking photos while the masked, cloaked man beat the eight convicted gamblers over the back. A ninth man will face his cruel punishment when he has recovered from an illness. Gambling is a breach of the version of Sharia law used in the province.
