A Turkish father was found guilty of murdering his own daughter in the UK in what police are calling an 'honor killing.'
Muslims typically believe promiscuity and romantic involvement with Christians or Muslims of other sects to be an offense on the family and society's honor. Many times conversion to Christianity or other religions brings on the same reaction. Honor Killings usually take place at the hands of male relatives who decide to cleanse the family name of the disgrace by means of murder. |
