Mob burns adulterer to death
BOGOR: A man was burned to death at dawn on Friday near a rice field in Ciwaru village by a mob of local residents for allegedly having an illicit affair with a married woman.
Residents of Tenjo subdistrict have long suspected the 30-year-old Yanto of having an affair with Yeni, the wife of a man named Apandi.
