beyond belief

No, never, Muslims committing rape, sodomy etc. It is not allowed in the qu'ran. Surely not. The police must have got it wrong. Tongue in cheek aside, I am not terribly surprised by your figures: In various Islamic countries I have worked in (not Malaysia) the number of good Muslims looking for extra marital sex beggars belief, Including one example where one offered my wife a 'lift' home while she was on a shopping trip. Of course it may have been an innocent well meaning gesture, but for the offer of a gold necklace if she had consented. Fortunately, it was a well lighted, busy shopping mall, and she was part of a shopping bus load.
