Three 'adulterers' stoned to death http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=2007\03\15\story_15-3-2007_pg7_25

BARA: The Lashkar-e-Islami (LI) on Wednesday stoned to death two men and a woman on charges of adultery. Two days ago, the LI men were informed that two men were committing adultery at Watan Shah's house in Meelot village of Akakhel in Bara, Khyber Agency, locals said, adding that the LI men raided the house and found a girl, Taslim, with tribesmen Allah Noor and Shahzad in a "compromising position". Locals said the two men "confessed" and the LI men took them and the girl to Meelot stream where hundreds of tribesmen stoned them to death. They said the LI men also fired bullets at their bodies. The men reportedly belonged to Kokikhel tribe of Khyber Agency, while the girl was said to be from a settled area. In the past, tribal families shot dead people found involved in adultery, but this was the first case in which "adulterers" were first stoned to death and then fired at publicly. qazi rauf
