Mali: Unmarried Couple stoned to death for living together

(BAMAKO) An unmarried couple has been stoned to death in the Kidal region of Mali.
Local residents were invited by Islamists to take part in the public punishment of this unlucky couple for violating “Islamic law”.  As per Sharia law, holes were dug into the ground and the victims placed inside.  The holes are then back filled leaving the top half of the victim above ground but unable to escape. You can guess the rest.

The above was about the stoning of an unmarried couple in Mali. Here are a few other snippets of Islamic intolerance in Africa, these past few days:
