Tangerang: The leader of the Salamullah (God's Kingdom of Eden) sect, Lia Aminudin (see photo) aka Lia Eden, distributed pizzas to her fellow inmates to mark her release from Tangerang Penitentiary on Friday.

Lia, who was sentenced for the second time to six months' imprisonment, was convicted for alleged blasphemy related to the sect she founded.

Lia says she is the reincarnation of the archangel Gabriel and that she receives messages from God.

An inmate in the penitentiary said Lia gave out pizzas on Friday morning to fellow inmates in the block where she had been imprisoned.

"[The pizzas] were distributed to all inmates in block seven," inmate TW said Friday, as reported by tempointeraktif.com.

She added that Lia had taught lessons on dried flower arrangements in a space at the back of the penitentiary. Her assistant was one of her followers.

Lia also continued to wear her signature white robe in penitentiary.
