Ambassador Jibril Muhammad Aminu Embassy of Nigeria 1333 16th Street, NW Washington, DC 20036 Save Amina Lawal´s Life From Death by Stoning I am deeply concerned by the introduction of new Shari'ah based Penal Codes in Northern Nigeria. These new codes establish the death penalty for crimes such as adultery and introduce cruel, inhuman and degrading punishments such as flogging and amputation. It is under these inhuman laws that Amina Lawal has been sentenced to death by stoning in Bakori, Katsina State. Thus, I call on the Federal Government of the Republic of Nigeria to ensure that Amina Lawal is not executed under any circumstances. Sincerely,
