It happened in Somalia....where there is no effective government. Still,
Iran is no bargain.
Stoning in Iran
And Pakistan does not seem immune.

Quote:"Pakistan: Couple stoned to death for adultery," from AKI (thanks to C.C.):
Ghalanai, 2 April(AKI/DAWN) - A man and a woman have been stoned to death by militants inPakistan's north-west border region after an Islamic 'qazi' court found them guilty of adultery.
A qazi court is an Islamic court, parallel to the Pakistani judicial system.
According to the Pakistani daily, Dawn, this is the first incident of stoning carried out in the Federally Administered Tribal Areas on the border of Afghanistan.
In the past, couples found guilty of adultery by militants or tribesmen were executed by firing squads.
Ah...far more civilized!
