Buffalo Bill

Affair couple fined four buffaloes

A Malaysian court has found two lovers guilty of having an illicit affair - and ordered them to pay a fine of four buffaloes and a pig.

The Star newspaper says the Native Court in Penampang district on Borneo island ruled on Friday that the man and woman must compensate their communities with the animals, valued at about 6,000 ringgit (around £1,100), for their tryst.

They were also fined 1,000 ringgit (£184) each.

The man's wife filed a complaint last year after finding her husband in shorts and her colleague in a sarong at the man's second home. The court rejected their claim that they were just 'best friends.'
