UK 'teddy' teacher in Sudan court

Sorry but to me, Sudan is looking like the Clown Country of the month.

A British female teacher has arrived at a court in Sudan after she was charged with offending religion by allowing a teddy bear to be named "Mohammed."...

...The spokeswoman said Gibbons had been charged under Article 125 of Sudan's constitution, the law relating to insulting religion and inciting hatred. Under country's law, the offense is punishable with 40 lashes, a jail term of up to a year or a fine.

"We understand no offense was intended and trust the court decision will reflect that," the spokeswoman said.
