According to multiple reports, Cristiano Ronaldo is reportedly facing a sentence of 99 lashes in Iran for hugging and kissing a female painter during a visit to the country with his team Al-Nassr. The punishment is for "adultery," which is how the Iranian judicial system views physical contact between unmarried men and women. However, at least one report suggests that Ronaldo can escape the punishment if he shows remorse for his actions. Ronaldo has not commented on the matter yet.
