courts of Khartoum continue to issue selective brutal Provisions Ombda General Criminal Court in Khartoum state - headed by Judge : Sami Ibrahim Shabo sentenced to death by stoning a woman who was accused of having an illicit relationship with a man and having a child as a result of this relationship on Sunday, May 13, 2012. This provision comes in accordance with Article 146 of the Sudanese criminal law. The Judge has acquitted the man accused in that same case justifying this by the lack of his confusion. Sudan Change Now condemns this brutal provision which based on controversial Islamic legitimate opinion , and we demand immediate interference of the judicial authorities in Khartoum to stop the implementation of this sentence that is extremely brutal and violate shamefully the spirit of humanity and civilization as well as all principles of justice by condemning one party in an act requires necessarily two to occur. This provision also reflects the blatant discrimination against women and major violation of their equal rights. We appeal to all Sudanese citizens, and all individuals and organizations from around the world to sign on this petition and to address the Sudanese government to stop this immediately and ensure non-recurrence of issuing such judgments.

The weight of this sentencing has prompted many of you to share your own experiences with the inequality embedded in our current legal framework. These accounts provide a stark reminder that this struggle is about the fundamental right to fair and equal justice for every person. We are currently working to ensure these signatures reach the authorities who have the power to reconsider this harsh verdict.

The growth in support for this cause reflects a shared refusal to accept these judicial actions as normal. It is clear that the call for humanity and equality within our legal system resonates far beyond our initial reach.

Stop this now. She deserves a fair trial not a medieval execution.

This is completely insane. How can you punish a woman but let the man go free when it takes two people to do that?? Justice in Sudan is broken.

Sami Ibrahim Shabo needs to be removed from the bench. No legal system should ever allow such blatant double standards.

My heart breaks for her. Leaving a child without a mother because of these archaic laws is just cruel.
