From Weasel Zippers:
(Daily Mail)- Britain's Ambassador to Kuwait has left his post following claims that he had an affair with a married Embassy worker who is now pregnant.
Michael Aron has moved back to Britain to take up a job in Whitehall – just over a year after starting the important role in the Middle East.
His return came after rumours of an affair with brunette Victoria Cumming, who is 15 years his junior, began circulating among the wealthy ex-pat community.
Under Kuwait’s strict Sharia Law, married couples who commit adultery can face a punishment of 100 lashes or three years in prison. Foreign nationals face the same penalty and are usually deported.
Note: Even though Kuwait is enormously wealthy and modernized, they still practice the same draconian version of sharia law that Saudi Arabia implements.
