A 19-year-old Muslim girl was stoned to death in Ukraine under the Islamic Sharia law after she took part in a beauty contest, a media report said Tuesday.
Katya Koren was found dead in her village. Her battered body was buried in a forest and was found a week after she disappeared, the Daily Mail reported.
Koren's friends said she had come seventh in a beauty contest.
Police are now looking into claims that three Muslim youths killed her.
