= ORAN BIBLE USED BY THE DEFENSE Bt Keowol Is Gillty and Sent to Prison Paris, June 23 (UP)—Si Moham- med Hadadine, tried for the murder of his brother-in-law, Abd-Es-Salem, thought it was easy sailing for him when he invoked the law of the Kor- an wherein it is declared: “Thou shalt not take the wife of thy neighbor.” Hadadine asserted he killed his relative because the latter had stolen his wife. But the judge remarked that when Hadadine slit his brother-in- law’s throat last July he had pre- pared himself for the deed by hard drinking. “What does the Koran say about that?” he asked the prisoner. In the code of the Kabyles of North Africa, to which race Hada- dine belongs, it is regarded as a dis- honor for a man whose honor has been outraged not to seek ven- geance. “Have vengeance for the insult,” says the Kabyle law. “Let Allah be the judge. Allah is the all-great.” It was in following this precept, Hadadine tried to convince the jury, that Abd-Es-Salem met his death. “] had been waiting for the chance two years,” declared Hada- dine. “He wronged my wife against| her will. She told me. I sought vengeance. I am satisfled.” The jury thought otherwise. In view of the judge's summing up, in which he referred to the fact that the Koran absolutely orders believ- ers to abstain from alcoholic liquor, they found Hadadine guilty, but ac- corded him extenuating ecircum- stances. That saved his neck. But for the next 20 years he will have opportunity to reflect on the laws of the Koran and the laws of France. MAPLE HILL NBYS Mrs. G. K.
