Death By Stoning And Safiyati Hussaini (EDM999)

Death By Stoning And Safiyati Hussaini

EDM number 999 in 2001-02, proposed by Phil Sawford on 13/03/2002.

That this House calls upon the Nigerian Government to review the case of Safiyati Hussaini who was sentenced to death by stoning for the crime of adultery which was imposed by the Islamic court in the northern state of Sokoto last year; and notes that the lawyers acting on behalf of Safiya are seeking to overturn the sentence on the grounds that she was raped, and furthermore that the alleged act of adultery took place before the Sharia punishment of stoning was introduced in Sokoto, that Safiyati was not properly informed of the nature of the proceedings at her first trial and that she had not been provided with a lawyer at her first trial.

This motion has been signed by a total of 67 MPs.
