Egyptian Dr to be imprisoned 15 yrs and whipped 1,500 times in Saudia ?what is your reaction?

the wife of a great name fell off the horse .
she had injury in spine , had bad pains .
she was sent to the US for operation .
she had pains and was medicated on painkillers there .
she had an Egyptian psychiatrist to follow up with the treatment of her pains .
she became addicted to pain killers .
the Saudi judge ordered 3 yrs imprisonment and 1,500 whippings to be given in seessions every 10 days .
this verdict was increased to 15 yrs of imprisonment and the same 1,500 whippings .
Al Hyatt and 90 mins contacted the doc's wife who is upset as may be imagined .
is this acceptable ?
the Counsul in Jeddah was on the phone .
he doesnt know how to stop this savagery !
