Trial of Defendant: Noora Husein Hammad Dawoud
Decision:
On 4/29/2018 (Within the proceedings of trial GA/Execution/10/2018) The General Court judge of
South Omdurman Criminal Court convicted the above-mentioned defendant according to Article
(130/1) of the Criminal Code 1991, and ruled her to be executed by hanging to death in retribution
of her violation of Article (130/1) of the Criminal Code 1991, along with an order to surrender
exhibits to their rightful owners, and referring the file to the National Supreme Court in accordance
to Article (181) of the Criminal Procedure Act 1991.
On 05/24/2018 Attorneys Adel Mohamed Abdel Mahmoud and Hamza Mohamed Ali Abusin
appealed the decision presenting an argument for the intervention of this court, that we summarize
as that; the Subject-Matter Court parsed the defendant’s testimonies both at the investigation stage
and at the trial stage, while they were to be considered since there was no contradicting evidence in
the claim. Also, the Subject-Matter Court denied the defendant her legal right of self-defense on the
sudden quarrel and severe provocation she endured, either by fighting or by forcing her into the
marriage which is a sort of coheres in violation of Article (43) of the Personal Status Act 1991.
