    Adultery is committed when a married woman has sexual intercourse with a man who is not her husband, or vice versa if the man knows she is married. Adultery is punished by imprisonment for up to 6 years. If the adultery was committed while abandoned by the spouse, a lower penalty is imposed. Any husband who keeps a mistress in the home, has public sex outside marriage, or cohabits elsewhere with another woman can be imprisoned for up to 4 years, while the mistress may be exiled.
