NAIROBI, May 10 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - A 19-year-old girl in Sudan was sentenced to death by a court on Thursday for murdering her husband after he tried to rape her, said campaigners, calling on the president to pardon her as she was forced into a child marriage, and had acted in self-defence.

Noura Hussein says her father made her contractually marry her cousin when she was 16, but she refused to accept the union and sought refuge with a relative for three years.

She returned to her family home on the outskirts of the capital Khartoum in April this year after her father said the marriage was cancelled, but found that she had been duped and preparations for her wedding ceremony were under way.

Hussein said that she refused to have sex with her husband after the ceremony, but on the sixth day, he raped her as three of his male relatives held her down to restrain her.

The following day, he attempted to rape her again and as she struggled to stop him, she stabbed him, killing him.

A Sharia court, which follows Islamic religious law, found Hussein guilty of premeditated murder last month and on Thursday officially sentenced her to death by hanging. Her lawyers have 15 days to appeal.

"Under Sharia law, the husband's family can demand either monetary compensation or death. They chose death and now the death penalty has been handed down," said Badr Eldin Salah, an activist from the Afrika Youth Movement who was in the court.

That is insanity as well.
 
She was tried in a court of law, found guilty, and was given the death penalty.

America also hands out the death penalty to convicted murders.

So what's the problem? .... :dunno:

We don't hang them a week after the trial.
 
They should, at least try the three guys who held her down.

They could swing with her.

The problem is that it was a contractual marriage. Her father lied to get her back home and married her off anyway. She was raped. The following day he attempted to rape her again and she stopped him.

The sentencing was left to the perpetrator's family.

If you don't see something wrong with this picture, then maybe you need to rethink what it is to be human.

I live in the US. There is nothing that I can do about Sudan. I live in a country where women are marching in the streets for rights they already have. Further, there is a movement where we have many women that cannot manage to figure out that not liking the sex or your behavior afterwards is not the same as rape. Quid pro quo is not rape.

But, lets not pretend that a father betraying his daughter that winds up in a death sentence when she doesn't consent is peachy keen.

That it was a contractual marriage isn't the problem.

Heck, half the worlds population practices some form of contractual marriage.

And the brides don't murder their husband over it. ..... :cool:

Ya, being forced into a marriage at the age of 16 is a problem. The attempted rape at that point is a problem. The fact that her father told her that it was over and her returning to her home and forced into the marriage is a problem. The fact that she was raped and three men held her down is a problem. The fact that the following day that he attempted to rape her again is a problem.

There wasn't any rape.

The guy was her husband. He had his marital rights.

She just needed to get with the program. :cool:
