Mother Faces Death By Stoning In Sudan

(Sky News) A 23-year-old woman convicted of adultery will be stoned to death unless granted a last minute appeal by authorities in Sudan.

Laila Ibrahim Issa Jamool is being kept shackled to her six-month-old baby after being convicted by a court in the capital Khartoum on July 10, activists say.

President Omar Hassan al-Bashir said last month Sudan would adopt a "100%" Islamic constitution after the breakaway of non-Muslim South Sudan a year ago.
