The quote that Marco posted is in fact a verse from the Quran : " And when the female (infant) buried alive (as the pagan Arabs used to do) shall be questioned.
For what sin she was killed?(Surah Takwir) And when we read the explanation we learn how God will not let go on the day of Judgement those who killed their baby girls.
Similarly there are many many hadiths condemning this evil and warning of severe punishments for those who commit such crimes. As a Muslimah I can only quote from my faith the condemning of infanticide and I'm sure others of different beliefs may have their own.
BUT I'm sure you know LP, that a person who commits such abominations fear no God, no Court, and no retribution, in heaven or on earth, hence the atrocities still exists.
Murder especially of this nature should surely carry a death penalty IMO. That will at least serve as some kind of deterrent though I know there will still be those willing to risk even death to do what they do.
