Original Note:
al-Raghwah was executed for murdering the boy. The max sentence for rape on a minor is 7y. Yemen follows Sharia which has no age of consent and there are 4m child brides. In Sharia, the victim's family decides to pardon or execute in some categories of murder. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1197900/Justice-Yemen-style-Paedophile-raped-boy-11-shot-head-hundreds-spectators.html https://south24.net/news/newse.php?nid=3005 https://www.unicef.org/media/111411/file/Child-marriage-country-profile-Yemen-2021.pdf https://www.un.org/sexualviolenceinconflict/countries/yemen/ https://www.ageofconsent.net/world/yemen
