A girl who said she was gang raped has been stoned to death in Somalia for alleged adultery, a human rights group has said.Dozens of men reportedly pelted the 13-year-old Aisha Ibrahim Duhulow with rocks in a stadium packed with 1,000 spectators in Kismayo.
Amnesty International said the Islamic militia in charge of the city had accused her of adultery after she reported that three men had raped her.
Initial reports said Duhulow was 23, but her father told Amnesty that she was just 13.
Some of the Somali journalists who first reported the killing later admitted they had judged her to be 23 based upon her physical appearance.
UPDATE: And how about this to concentrate the mind: Iranian missiles will soon be able to reach Europe. Maybe The One can give another speech over there.
