Again =( Again another murderously evil, vile and dishonorable act done in the name of religion and preserving honor! Hope the criminal sick excuses for parents get a justly harsh penalty so they taste the torment the poor girl experienced!
As for why one finds such crimes so prevalent in Muslim dominated countries, then I think we all know by now the reason. These people not only lack knowledge of the religion but have instead created their own interpretation of the faith to suit their needs. There is not a single verse either from the Quran or authentic hadiths supporting the barbaric acts of these people, and mind you many of them even admit this. Yet they do them anyways, because they believe it to be right, and because their ancestors did them!
That said it's not only seen among Muslims only. It is cultural to some tribes and kinds. Even some of the non Muslim Kurdish people perform such practices. And back in SL these acts of "revenge killings" to restore so called lost honor happen among some people in rural areas too.
IMO it's time international bodies got involved in order to stamp out such evils. There is nothing honorable in "honor" killings, and the perpetrators of such crimes deserves the worst penalty permitted regardless of their faith!And yes I support capital punishment too being applied for people who do such demonic deeds!
