Libya: Death Sentence for Medical Workers Confirmed
Libya's mad leader continues in his path of madness--and enjoying political benefits in the process: Gaddafi rejects release of medics
Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has rejected calls for the release of six foreign medics sentenced to death for infecting children with HIV/Aids.Those who committed crimes must accept the consequences, he said.
Libya has been under increasing pressure because of international doubts over the fairness of the trial.
Five Bulgarian nurses and a Palestinian doctor have been tried and found guilty twice of deliberately infecting more than 400 children with HIV.
Colonel Gaddafi stressed the "the independence of the Libyan judicial system", and he rejected what he called "Western intervention and pressure in this affair"....
Thanks to reader Giussani for the tip.

Looks like it wont be long before the Muslim world wont be able to get any medical staff to go there, no matter how much they pay.
They've rejected the scientific evidence in this case; but what else can you expect from ignoramuses who's word of Allah tells them that a fly has a disease on one wing, and its cure on the other.
