Rylee Meek explains how Sharia law handles rape accusations: a woman needs four male witnesses or risks being charged with adultery herself. She cites a 2008 Somalia case where a 13-year-old girl was stoned to death for adultery after being raped by three men, because she couldn't produce the required witnesses.

So last couple aspects of Sharia law. It protects rapists. Essentially, a woman making an accusation of rape has to provide four male witnesses. If she is unable to do so, she will be charged with Xena, for which the prescribed punishment is flogging and stoning. Thousands of women are imprisoned as a result of unsuccessful charges of rape. Some are even stoned to death. In 2008, there's a 13 year old girl in Somalia. She was stoned to death for adultery. Later, her aunt told the British Broadcasting Corporation BBC that Aisha had been raped by three armed men. Rapists are seldom brought to trial, let alone punished. So this girl was 13 years old and she was raped by three. But she didn't have the fourth witness. So she was stoned to death for adult for adultery. That's just unbelievable.
