Saudi preacher jailed 8 years for raping, killing daughter
2013-10-09
[Al Ahram] A Saudi court sentenced a preacher convicted of raping his five-year-old daughter and torturing her to death to eight years in prison and 800 lashes, a lawyer said Tuesday.

In a case that drew widespread public condemnation in the kingdom and abroad, the court also ordered Fayhan Al-Ghamdi to pay his ex-wife, the girl's mother, one million riyals ($270,000) in "blood money," lawyer Turki Al-Rasheed told AFP.

Blood money is compensation for the next of kin under Islamic law.

#1  a father cannot be executed for murdering his children, nor can husbands be executed for murdering their wives.

Islam's beauty.
