a Yemeni woman is facing imminent execution accused of killing her husband. Fatima Hussein Badi was convicted of murder in 2001 and faces the death penalty despite a court ruling in 2003 that she did not take part in the killing. There is mounting fear for her life following the execution of another woman for similar charges.
