Thief naked humiliations

A video has emerged showing one man’s extreme humiliation. His crime? He tried to steal a cow.

The bloodied thief was paraded naked on a leash through the crowded street of Madura, a tiny island few hours off Bali. To make matter worse, the villagers tied his hands behind his back, preventing him to cover his genital, exposing to the whole world to see.

Halfway through to the video, he fell and another bashing session began. A man hit him with a branch (what the?) and another pulled his hair forcing him to continue "the walk" of shame. Sadly, he was unable to do so, and just sat there to be condemned and waiting for another blow from the angry mob.

In the village where a family only could own a cow or two and rely on it for their livelihood, can we justify this treatment to another human being?
