Nigeria: In the second such case in the Northern states of Nigera, a woman has been sentenced to death by stoning for committing adultery. Aminant Lawal of Kurami village,(who is pregnant out of wedlock)lost her appeal to the Sharia Appeallate court.
Twelve Northern states in the region have adopted the Islamic law "Sharia" since 1999. Ironicaly, in a similar case both the man and woman were sentenced to death,in this case,the man responsible for the pregnancy was set free.
The the federal government and several Womens Rights groups have come to Aminat's defense, as well as the U.S., the European Union and France, all have condemned the decision. However,, the Sharia Courts are considered a viable law body in Nigera.
