Islamic Police Searching For Lesbian Fugitives

The following article is a taste of what the religion of peace has in mind for our gay and lesbian friends… 

Five lesbian ‘wives’ flee Sharia
BBC News
A Nigerian lesbian who “married” four women last weekend in Kano State has gone into hiding from the Islamic police, with her partners.

Under Sharia law, adopted in the state seven years ago, homosexuality and same-sex marriages are outlawed and considered very serious offences. - Read that as, “stone-able” offenses…

The theatre where the elaborate wedding celebration was held on Sunday has been demolished by Kano city’s authorities. 

Notice that they call it a, “theater,” and not a wedding chapel or anything like that, thus, removing any religious overtones, so that they can demolish it like a crack-house!  We could learn a lot from those spin doctors in Kano when it comes to getting rid of Islamonazi infested Mosques…

Lesbianism is also illegal under Nigeria’s national penal code.

Nigeria’s parliament is considering tightening its laws on homosexuality.

‘Unhealthy’

Kano’s Hisbah board, which uses volunteers to enforce Islamic law, told the BBC that the women’s marriage was “unacceptable”.

The BBC’s Bala Ibrahim in Kano says Aunty Maiduguri and her four “wives” are thought to have gone into hiding the day after they married.

All five women were born Muslims, otherwise they would not be covered by Sharia law.  So, that means the “theater” had to also be covered by Sharia law, then…  Hmmm…  Yup, it sounds more and more like it was a religious building, and not just a, “theater…”

Islam says a man can take up to four wives if he is able to support them.

“As defenders of the Sharia laws, we shall not allow this unhealthy development to take root in the state,” the Hisbah’s Malam Rabo Abdulkarim told Nigeria’s This Day newspaper.

Our correspondent says the theatre where the colourful wedding ceremony was held was flattened earlier this week.

Several reasons were given for the demolition, including the discovery that it was built on wrongly allocated land.

A Kano police spokesman told the BBC that his officers were not actively looking for the women, but would arrest them if need be.

The Hisbah group, which is run seperately from the police, receives state government support.

Two years ago, a Sharia court sentenced a man to six months in prison and fined him $38 for living as a woman for seven years in Kano.

Eleven other states in mostly Muslim northern Nigeria have adopted Sharia law.
