Convicted Saudi witch to be stoned to death
Fawza Falih is sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia, having been
convicted of witchcraft in 2005. Human Rights Watch asks to stop
her execution by stoning.
Saturday, February 16, 2008
Witch hunting is not a thing of the past, at least not in Saudi Arabia.
A court in the oil-rich kingdom handed down a death sentence against
Fawza Falih, a woman accused of witchcraft, stunning NGO Human Rights
Watch which has reacted by appealing to Saudi King Abdullah to stop the
execution.
The illiterate woman was detained by religious police in 2005 for
allegedly causing impotence in one of her accusers.
Ms Falih said that she was beaten and forced to fingerprint a confession
that she could not understand because she cannot read.
Saudi Arabia does not have a written criminal code and witchcraft is
not defined as a crime. Yet the Saudi court in charge of the case
passed a death sentence exercising its own discretionary powers to
protect the nation's principles, soul and identity.
For Joe Stork, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch, this case
underscores Saudi judges' inability to carry out objective criminal
investigations.
