Somali adulterer stoned to death
Islamists in southern Somalia have stoned a man to death for adultery but spared his pregnant girlfriend until she gives birth.
Abas Hussein Abdirahman, 33, was killed in front of a crowd of some 300 people in the port town of Merka.
An official from the al-Shabab group said the woman would be killed after she has had her baby.
Islamist groups run much of southern Somalia, while the UN-backed government only control parts of the capital.
This is the third time Islamists have stoned a person to death for adultery in the past year.
Al-Shabab official Sheikh Suldan Aala Mohamed said Mr Abdirahman had confessed to adultery before an Islamic court.
"He was screaming and blood was pouring from his head during the stoning. After seven minutes he stopped moving," an eyewitness told the BBC.
The BBC's Mohammed Olad Hassan in Mogadishu says that if the woman is also killed, her baby would be given to relatives to look after.
Meanwhile, President Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed has accused al-Shabab of spoiling the image of Islam by killing people and harassing women.
"Their actions have nothing to do with Islam," said the moderate Islamist during a ceremony at which he nominated a new administration for the capital, Mogadishu.
"They are forcing women to wear very heavy clothes, saying they want them to properly cover their bodies but we know they have economic interests behind - they sell these kinds of clothes and want to force people to buy them."
Last month, two men were stoned to death in the same town after being accused of spying.
A 13-year-old girl was stoned to death for adultery in the southern town of Kismayo last year.
Human rights groups said she had been raped.
Another man has also been punished in this way in the Lower Shabelle region.
Mr Sharif, a former rebel leader, was sworn in as president after UN-brokered peace talks in January.
Although he says he also wants to implement Sharia, al-Shabab says his version of Islamic law would be too lenient.
The country has not had a functioning national government for 18 years.

Must be a mistake, they are a very peaceful religion.
Don't worry though, obscene amounts of YOUR money are given to lovely countries like Somalia, Sudan and their ilk in 'Aid' ........ presumably to 'Aid' more atrocities.
We should send them Gok Wan or James Sherwood. If they learned to dress themselves properly, as opposed to just wearing soiled bedsheets they might start behaving with a bit of decorum.

i'll hold my hand up, I have seen a video of a stoning on the internet, via an urban legends website
it's not good, it's truely atrocious..............what they do at the end of a stoning is, throw a pavement slab at one's head
it was a woman, for seeing a man from a different country, the middle east is unbelievable and certainly has no real morals

13 year girl ,raped, then stoned to death for adultery.
Maybe islam isn't a bad thing after all. Can they do this for paedos, murderers, drunk thugs and druggies?
Can they do this for vandals too? Specifically stone throwers.
