Driven from her home by the senior wives when her husband was away, her husband's brother caught her talking to a boy on the street. He and the men he was with killed the boy and gang raped Ayeza. The village imam condemned her in accordance with Islamic law for enticing the rape. An American patrol rescued her as her husband and his family was stoning her in the street.
