Honour Killings in Britain..

It’s sad to see issues like these still so pervasive. I remember saying the same thing said in this article to some community members a few years back, about how some communities are in a time warp. They live in the Pakistan of the 1960’s and 70’s and not the Pakistan of today.

In the UK alone, 117 murders are being investigated as ‘honour killings’

The girl’s white shirt was clogged with blood. Her attacker had broken down the bathroom door to get to her - the floor was slippery with her blood.

He’d set about her with such ferocity that the tip of the kitchen knife had
broken off, stabbing her 11 times and then slitting her throat. She was 16, and he was her father.
Abdulla Yones killed his daughter Heshu in their flat on the third floor of
Charles Hocking House, a dismal council block in Acton, west London. Two days earlier, he had received an anonymous letter at the south London offices of the Kurdish PUK, where he worked as a volunteer, disclosing that it was known in the community that she had a boyfriend, and claiming that she was behaving like a prostitute. After Abdulla Yones was sentenced to life imprisonment, he said he’d been forced to kill Heshu because he’d been placed in an untenable position.

In 1998, Rukhsana Naz’s mother held her down at their house in the Midlands
while her brother wrapped a plastic flex around her neck and strangled her.
Rukhsana was seven months pregnant. She had been married in Pakistan at the
age of 15 and already had two children; just before her mother and
22-year-old brother murdered her, they made her sign a will naming
themselves as her guardians. Rukhsana’s husband had remained in Pakistan,
but she had returned to Britain and become pregnant by the boyfriend she had
met at school. Her mother, Shakeela, wept as she killed her. When Rukhsana’s
other brother, 18-year-old Iftikhar, heard the commotion and ran downstairs,
she told him: ‘Be strong, son.’ The family put Rukhsana’s body in the car
and drove 100 miles to dump it.

I honestly feel like crying when I read such things.

:mad: :teary2:

How can they do that??? Their own childeren!!! #$^$^&%&^&^*^&

Idiots, they give unlimited amounts of freedom to their daughters and don't bring them up properly because they are busy in their curry house or cab or makiong more babies and when one day she comes home pregnant they kill her, it's the parents fault for niot bringing up their daughters properly, how the hell do you expecxt her to not be in heat after rearing her on all those dirty bollywood films and other dirty media, and studying with and being mates with boys? It's like teasing a hungry dog wiv a bone (sorry couldn't thinik of better examples).

if ur not gunno have a proper muslim/paki mahol at home and give no tarbiyat to ur daughters they will turn into whores.

I kind of agree with Naadir. It does matter a lot how children are brought up - however these women did NOT deserve to die for the mistakes they might have made. Just because a child does soething disagreeable... hurting them in such a way is atrocious.There should be special places in the communities where such women can go for help.Bottom line, girls who are aware that their families are against that whole gf/bf issue should make an effort to maybe have such issues resolved...marriage maybe? I dont know.

So watching 'dirty movies' and studying to be friends with boys(?) turns girls into prostitutes?

Naadir, you seem to think that prostitution and adultery is a western invention, as if this didn't happen in the Islamic world before 'dirty movies' were there. Come on.

Learn to understand what someone says...before jumping on to conclusions.

What he is talking about is upbringing of children matters a lot. You have kanjarkhana on TV 24/7, its more likely your children gonan do that same thing. You gotta be more careful with kids nowadays, no matter if ur in Pakistan or US.

"Dirt movies"... lol, funny how u dissapeared the word 'bollywood' to support your claim. Putta jee....since when has Bollywood and India, become part of West?

.

I sometimes feel its so wrong marrying kids to someone in another country. If the girl was married in uk and living with her husband, this might not had happened.

and parents should mary their kids to whomever they want to then making them do wrong stuff and end up killing them.
