No, the sentence was for the attorney attempting to change the outcome of the case by embarrassing the Sharia court by appealing to the media.
Even in the U.S., such behavior would generally be considered unprofessional for an attorney, but in this case, I think the lawyer is not only justified, he's a brave and admirable person for taking on this system at the risk of his career and possibly his life.
Lawyers in the middle east are really some of my favorite people lately -- real heroes. There's this guy and the thousands of Pakistani lawyers who tried to storm the court house so that they could protect their clients' rights.
I have nothing but respect and admiration for these guys.
