Bekhal Mahmod, Banaz's sister, testified that that her brother was ordered to kill Banaz, but couldn't go through with it.


but they will NOT be killed and have THEIR bodies stuffed into a suitcase to rot.

STOP HONOR KILLINGS. there is NO honor

can you imagine a father killing his daughter? i can't

if you think it doesn't happen here or in europe you are sadly mistaken. it does

banaz, you are in the hearts and souls of every woman

banaz, we will not rest until the world is a safe place for all


(please note, an english police officer even considered charging banaz. why? she broke her grandmother's window. why? BECAUSE SHE WAS TRYING TO ESCAPE HER FATHER. WHY? BECAUSE HE WAS TRYING TO KILL HER.

how can we protect women when shite like this happens EACH AND EVERY DAY


Father in 'honor killing' found guilty of murder
Brit ordered his daughter strangled for falling in love with wrong man





LONDON - A father who ordered his daughter brutally slain for falling in love with the wrong man in a so-called “honor killing” was found guilty of murder on Monday.
Banaz Mahmod, 20, was strangled with a boot lace, stuffed into a suitcase and buried in a back garden.
Her death is the latest in an increasing trend of such killings in Britain, home to some 1.8 million Muslims. More than 100 homicides are under investigation as potential “honor killings.”.........





...............During the three-month trial, prosecutors said Mahmod’s father beat his daughter for using hairspray and adopting other Western ways. Her uncle once told her she would have been “turned to ashes” if she were his daughter and had shamed the family by becoming involved with the Iranian Kurd, her sister 22-year-old Bekhal Mahmod testified.
Banaz Mahmod ran away from home when she was a teenager but returned when her father sent her an audio tape in which he warned he would kill her sisters, her mother and himself if she did not come home, her sister said.................

.......On New Year’s Eve, she was lured by her father to her grandmother’s home, where she suspected he planned to attack her after he forced her to gulp down brandy and approached her while wearing gloves. She escaped by breaking a window and was treated at a hospital.
Police dismissed her suspicions, and one officer, who is under investigation, considered charging her with damages for breaking her grandmother’s window............
