Pregnant teenager alleging gang-rape charged with adultery in Sudan
The Guardian ^ | 18 February 2014 | David Smith

Posted on 02/19/2014 4:44:03 PM PST by george76

Ethopian teenager says she was raped by seven men last August, and now faces possible sentence of death by stoning.

...

The woman is charged with adultery, although she denied the charges and is pleading not guilty on the basis that the sexual act was against her will. Her attempt to make a complaint of rape has been denied on the technicality that she is under investigation on other charges and she should have complained at the time of the incident. Her request for bail has been denied by the attorney general.

"The intention to place culpability on the part of the victim is of great concern and seeks to deflect and reduce accountability of the perpetrators, but more disturbing is that the charge of adultery carries with it the potential sentence of death by stoning if found guilty

Part of Obama’s foreign aid package to Sudan is all the stones they can use.

They need to get rid of their oppressive, backwards-assed, 7th century “religion”.

Islamites will stone her to death to protect the Islamite rapists. Pure demon animals!

They’ll stay silent over this, just like their fellow Marxists in the gay community who look the other way when it comes to the treatment of fellow homosexuals, transgenders, etc. in those paradises. It’s an unholy alliance of convenience based on the faulty ASSumption that an enemy of my enemy is my friend. And we all know what happens when we ASS-U-ME

the sexual act was against her will.

That does not matter under Islamic “law”. She ADMITTED to adultery; mass adultery with 7 good, decent muslim men. It must have been her fault; she must have done something that no man can resist to tempt them. Maybe she showed a bit of leg? Or arm? How could a good muslim man resist such a temptress? She must be killed; sadly she can only be killed once even though she tarnished 7 good muslim men.

She doesn’t have to worry about eternal punishment though; under Islam only men have souls. Women are just property; of less value than cows. Maybe somewhere between goats and pigs....

Yes, the “religion of peace” (and tolerance) strikes again.

It’s got to be her fault. Did she put on eyeshadow because another article posted here today said that most Saudi men feel that wearing eyeshadow causes sexual assaults!

(Why do I feel like all of the men in Islamic countries didn’t progress beyond the toddler stage when to comes to personal responsibility?)
