IranMania News - www.iranmania.com Iranian woman survives execution: report TEHRAN, Nov 5 (AFP) - A Iranian woman found guilty of complicity to murder has survived her execution by stoning by managing to escape the hole she was buried in, the WomeninIran.com website reported Tuesday. Under Iran's interpretation of Islamic law, men condemned to death by stoning are buried up to their hips while women are buried up to their chests. If they manage to escape the burial before being pelted with small stones, they are free to go. Such was the case for the woman in the central city of Yazd who was condemned to die for complicity in the murder of her husband, said the site run by Iranian women journalists. The report did not name the woman or say when the incident took place. Death by stoning is mostly used to punish adulterors, but Iran' reformist have recently signalled their willingness to find an alternative punishment following complaints from a series of visiting European dignitaries. <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
