crime and punishement in Gaza.

Gaza has adopted several features of Shiara law.  A quorum of three voted in the second reading of the new legal code.

Hamas passes bill allowing executions


London-based al-Hayat newspaper reports Gaza parliament sanctions bill allowing whipping, hanging as standard punitive action

Roee Nahmias Published:  12.24.08, 11:36 / Israel News 




Where are the human rights groups? Hamas has recently passed a radical Islamic bill ushering whipping, dismembering and execution as standard punitive action into the Gaza penal code, the London-based Arabic-language newspaper al-Hayat reported Wednesday.

According to the report, the bill passed its second reading in the Gaza Parliament, by unanimous majority of three – the only three members of parliament who were present at the meeting.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas is unlikely to sanction the bill, as required by the Palestinian law , but Hamas would have little problem implementing it in Gaza – which is under its complete control.

 

The bill is made up of 214 subsections. Section 59 states that "any Palestinian found guilty of raising a weapon against Palestine in favor of the enemy; countering Palestine's interests in a negotiation with a foreign government; and placing Palestine's existence in danger by committing an act of aggression against a foreign country... will be sentenced to death."

 

A similar fate awaits anyone found guilty of the following: "Joining a foreign army fighting Palestine or facilitating such action; demoralizing the Palestinian people to any of its resistance movements; spying on Palestine or engaging in espionage during wartime."

 


Section 84 stipulates that anyone found guilty of "drinking to making wine will be subjected to 40 lashes… drinking and harassing the public will be punishable by 40 lashes and three months in jail."

 

 
 
   
 
The whip will be used on anyone "engaging in games of chance, offending religious beliefs and defaming others' character," as well.

 

The bill also calls for dismembering – mostly of the hands – of anyone convicted of theft.

In other news, Iran executes 9 folks.  There is a very graphic graphic of an iranian execution at the link.

Meh, more dead Muslims.  And Mulsim eugenics, trying to breed everyone with a brain out of their gene pool (along with a certain leavening of plain old criminals, I suppose).

It happens to me all the time.

If I remember right, there were some Arab groups wanting to implement some of their laws in England and Canada this year.  Supposedly only laws dealing with marriage/divorce and "harmless" things like that.
