Speech at the House of Commons, Tues 11th Feb 2003
My name is Mina Ahadi and I am the coordinator of the International Committee against Stoning, which is an international network of nearly 200 women’s rights’ and human rights’ organisations and individuals from around the world, and which is fighting to save the lives of people sentenced to stoning and for the abolition of the inhuman law of stoning and of retributory punishment (the law of Qesas).
