Rapist to be stoned to death in Nigeria
An Islamic court in northern Nigeria (kano to be précised)
has sentenced a man of 63 to death by stoning for raping a girl of 10 and
infecting her with HIV.
The culprit, Ubale Sa'idu Dotsa admitted that he raped the
girl but said he had incited by the Devil, and it has also been reported two of
his relatives had died of Aids related diseases.
Kano state's commissioner of justice Maliki Kuliya stated
while talking to news men that several people had been sentenced to death by stoning
in northern Nigeria's Islamic courts but none have been carried out.
He also stated that the culprit has the right to appeal up
to the federal Supreme Court, but could take years.
Stoning to death??? I thought that was during the time of
Stephen...
