militants buried Warsame up to her neck and threw rocks at her head until she was pronounced dead.

In late October, the group stoned a 35-year-old woman to death in the town of Saakow for alleged adultery.

Habiba Ali Ishaq, married a second husband while already married to another man.

Al-Shabab runs its own court system as part of its effort to impose a strict form of Islamic law on Somalia.
