Amina Lawal, 30, convicted of sex out of wedlock, will not be executed until 2004 after a Katsina state high court postponed the death by stoning. The judge ordered hearings paused until July 8, as defense seeks to overturn the verdict amid political sensitivities and ongoing protests by human rights groups.
