Please provide some shred of evidence for the bolded assertion.

Also, no one, not even defence counsel for the Shafias, has ever argued that this sort of heinous and appalling act would be condoned by "Sharia Law" or that, even if it was so condoned (and I'm not aware of any interpretation of "Sharia Law" that would condone it), that such should have any relevance in Canadian law whatsoever.

You're tilting at windmills entirely of your own xenophobic imagination.
