Women in SudanWednesday 30 January 2002
Sudan is a country that is frequently pilloried for its treatment of women. It's an Islamic state which once sheltered Osama bin Laden, but allows women the right to vote and has more women judges than Britain.

Jenni Murray will be talking to one of those judges, Sania El Rashid Merghani Hamza, about justice in a state where in certain cases two female witnesses equals one man and a young woman is currently under threat of stoning for adultery.
