Somali woman stoned to death for adultery

Somali Islamists have stoned to death a woman accused of adultery in the first such public killing by militants in about two years, witnesses said.

The 23-year-old woman was placed in a hole up to her neck for the execution late on Monday in front of hundreds of people in a square in the southern port community of Kismayu, which the Islamist insurgents captured in August.

Stones were hurled at her head, and she was brought out of the hole three times to see if she had died.

When a relative and others surged forward, guards opened fire.

"A woman in green veil and black mask was brought in a car as we waited to watch the merciless act of stoning," one local resident, Abdullahi Aden, told Reuters.

"We were told she submitted herself to be punished, yet we could see her screaming as she was forcefully bound, legs and hands. A relative of hers ran towards her, but the Islamists opened fire and killed a child."

'Irreligious and illogical'

The Islamists last carried out public executions when they ruled Mogadishu and most of south Somalia for half of 2006. Allied Ethiopian and Somali government forces toppled them at the end of that year, but they have waged an Iraq-style guerrilla campaign since then, gradually taking territory back.

The Islamists now controlling the Kismayu area are again providing much-needed security, but also imposing fundamentalist practices such as banning entertainment seen as anti-Islamic.
Relatives of the woman executed in Kismayu, whom they named as Asha Ibrahim Dhuhulow, were furious.

"The stoning was totally irreligious and illogical," said her sister, who asked not to be identified. "Islam does not execute a woman for adultery unless four witnesses and the man with whom she committed sex are brought forward publicly."

Islamist leaders at the execution said the woman had breached Islamic law. They promised to punish the guard who had shot the child in the melee around the execution.

"We apologize for killing the child. And we promise we shall bring the one who opened fire before the courts and deal with him accordingly," an unnamed Islamist leader told the crowd.

Wouldn't hurt if we did that here, too. Both men and women, of course - I believe in equality.

Maybe for rapists, child molesters and murderers.... but cheating on someone? Whatever happened to dumping their ass, smashing all their belongings and spreading bad things about the person around town?

Hey, I was cheated on, and I don't wish them to be stoned to death.... their lives as they presently are is enough justice for me.... as it's a life I'm not a part of.... thank jebus.

Another bull**** article from Reuters. Just what's needed to rile up the first world idiots. Why not post a story about some Canadian women beaten to pulp by her drunk husband or father who's been sexually abuseing her since she was a little girl. How about doing the dirty laundry in your own back yard instead of looking for **** in somebody elses? There's nothing lower than an unreferrenced story about dirty Islamic savages printed by a cheap commercial propaganda organ. Happens everytime the Islamists or the poor anywhere begin to win.

Domestic stories you mention are quite easy to find on CBC or any other news sites, DB.

Your anger toward a news bot is incredible...

In your opinion though; North American news agencies should quit printing any sort of news that has to do with Islam, the middle east etc?

Globalization has made it that we look closer at wrong around the world.
Granted that we have wrong taking place here in friendly Canada, but to kill a woman with rocks in the 21 Century is like humanity eating sh!t

Sh!t like this happens all the time, no matter where you are. The "methods" of violence may be different, but the ruthless fury is there no matter what culture you're from.

What's the difference between killing with starvation phospherous bombs or DU and stones. We see these stories about the savages we burn and hack and poison by the million and it's supposed to make our crimes the lesser because the ragheads are just animals afterall.
