#1 Just watch, the alternative sentences will turn out to be hanging or honor-killings by relatives. I guess those are steps in the right direction.

#2 Key: "The judiciary has yet to officially announce the ruling from its ultra-conservative head, Ayatollah Mahmud Hashemi-Shahrudi"

Which is the problem. The judiciary and nouch of the government is "moderate" Islamic, but the ultras sit at the top. If I were to bet, I'd go for the judiciary to be overruled and Sharia kept, at least in name.
