This stoning, which seems to have taken place in or near Marseilles, could be an event comparable to the murder of Theo van Gogh: another herald of the willingness of Muslims in Europe to take it upon themselves to enforce Sharia provisions. A friend in Marseilles has sent in this article from a French-language journal, [1] 20 Minutes. My rough translation:

The alleged murderer of a 23-year-old Tunisian woman, whose stoned body was discovered on October 20, has been placed in police custody. The suspect, 18, arrested Sunday at his home, is an old acquaintance of the victim. He will be presented before the examining magistrate today.
