15 yr. old Maldives girl faces public flogging via Sharia law, was repeatedly raped by her stepfather, then he murdered baby she bore by him. Hey, BBC, let's give Maldives more US taxpayer 'climate change cash'!

1/8/13, "15-year-old raped by stepfather faces flogging for ‘fornication’,"
Irish Examiner,Patrick Walters

"A 15-year-old girl in the Maldives whose stepfather is accused of repeatedly raping her and killing the resulting baby risks being flogged for “fornication” with another man under the nation’s strict Islamic law.

In the course of inquiries into the rape case, police investigators say they unearthed evidence of the girl having had consensual sex with another man, which is an offence in the Indian Ocean holiday destination, a police source said.

Women, including minors, having consensual sex outside marriage can be charged in the Maldives, where convicts can be publicly flogged. Minors receive the punishment when they reach 18, the age of majority.

The girl’s stepfather is accused by police of repeatedly raping the girl and fathering a child by her which he subsequently murdered.

The girl’s mother has been charged with helping dispose of the infant’s body, police said.

“We completed the investigation [into the baby’s murder] and gave a report to the prosecutor general’s office,” said Maldivian police spokesman Hassan Haneef.

Haneef declined to give further details, saying that Maldivian common law did not allow the discussion of any case involving a minor.

The local Haveeru newspaper quoted an unnamed official from the prosecutor’s office saying that the fornication charge was unrelated to the rape, which had been dealt with separately.

The legal system of the Maldives, a nation of 330,000 Sunni Muslims known for its coral-fringed islands and sandy beaches, has elements of Islamic Sharia law as well as English common law.

The country carries out the flogging of women despite calls from the UN Human Rights Council to drop the practice.

BBC says small island nations like Maldives are angry having to wait so long for climate cash:

11/27/11, "Climate summit faces big emitters' stalling tactics," BBC, Richard Black

"Some observers say small island states, which traditionally aim their criticism at the industrialised world's big emitters, may begin "naming and shaming" developing countries that are also delaying progress....

President Nasheed of the Maldives is virtually the only leader who has spoken openly of the need for major developing countries to begin cutting emissions soon."...

Maldives speaks of "shaming" money out of the US at the Durban 'climate' conference but isn't ashamed of flogging women:

11/26/11, "What's there to discuss about flogging? There is nothing to debate about in a matter clearly stated in the religion of Islam. No one can argue with God," he (Maldives Minister Naseem) said."...

==========================

Maldives is a living hell:

1/7/12, "That sinking feeling," Sydney Morning Herald

"The country also has a serious drug problem. An epidemic of cheap heroin has swept through the archipelago and taken root in Male´ in particular. The UN has estimated 40 per cent of the country's youth use hard drugs.

The Maldives constitution obliges all Maldivians to be Muslim but the nation also faces a rising tide of Islamic fundamentalism.

Wahhabist Islamic scholars, most schooled in madrassas in Pakistan, are radicalising Islam in the Maldives. Female circumcision is practised and is reportedly on the increase. Across the archipelago, there are calls for the return of amputation for crimes and for the banning of music and dancing.
  • Women are flogged for having extramarital sex.
Every effort to resist this gathering radicalisation is painted by Nasheed's political opponents as an attack on Islam." ...

=======================

Maldives leader who believes in flogging women suggests we're murderers for not giving him as much global warming cash as he thinks he deserves:

4/13/12, "Mohamed Nasheed talks about ‘The Island President,’ keeping fragile democracy afloat," Washington Post, Ann Hornady

"Whatever happens, even if we all die, we should not be angry with the people who murdered us. We can’t run climate change campaigns fueled by anger. I can’t tell the people [of the Maldives] that there are other countries trying to murder you."...(p. 2)

---------------------------------------------

Maldives leader says Sharia law is "noble and civilized::

"“That the punishments and rulings of Islamic Sharia are not inhumane is very clear to us,” Nasheed said. “We have the opportunity to show the whole world how noble and civilised Sharia is. That is because we are the only Islamic nation with a democratically-elected government."...

"Working with Arthur Webb at the Fiji-based South Pacific Applied Geoscience Commission, Kench used historical aerial photographs and high-resolution satellite images to study changes in the land area of the islands.

They found that the remaining 23 had either stayed the same or grown bigger, according to the research published in a scientific journal, Global and Planetary Change."...
