July 24, International Day for Sakine Mohammadi Ashtiani, Trafalgar Square, London

A boy signs a petition calling for an end to stoning during a demonstration by members of the International Committee Against Stoning in Trafalgar Square, London, on July, 24, 2010, to demand the release of Sakineh Mohammadi Ashtiani, an Iranian woman sentenced to be stoned to death for committing adultery. The Iranian embassy in London has said that Ashtiani will not be stoned to death, but there has been speculation that she will instead be hanged.
