BALI - An Indo­nesian court has sentenced a woman to two years in jail for posting a viral TikTok video where she said an Is­lamic phrase before eating pork. Lina Lutfiawati, 33, was found guilty of “inciting ha­tred” against religious indi­viduals and groups. Lina Lutfiawati, who adopted the Indian name Lina Mukherjee due to her love of Bollywood movies, identifies as Muslim. The lifestyle influ­encer, who has more than two million TikTok followers, also runs a business in India. In March, she posted a video where she uttered “Bismillah” - an Arabic phrase that means “in the name of God” - before eating crispy pork skin.
