Nigerian woman thanks Miss World contestants


Amina Lawal, a Nigerian single mother sentenced to be stoned to death, today thanked Miss World contestants for their concern about her, but urged them not to boycott the event in Nigeria on her account.
Ms Lawal, 31, was sentenced to death by an Islamic court in May after she gave birth out of wedlock to Wasila, her third child. She lost her first appeal to a higher Sharia court and is awaiting a date for her second.
