Sentenced to Death in Yemen
"Kamel condemned the verdict, saying he should have been tried by an Islamic court and not a civil court.
His lawyer said he would appeal against the sentence, which is usually enforced by firing squad.
"The ruling is a political one and violates Islamic Sharia law," Kamel told the court in Ebb province, 170 kilometres (105 miles) south of the capital Sanaa."
I've got a little bit of experience in Islamic countries so I know "eye for an eye" is still thought well of there. He must mean that a Muslim can't be killed just because he went into a hospital and killed a bunch of Christian doctors.
Not much needed in the way of commentary. Yemen seems to be taking care of the problem.
