Palestinian Kills Sister?

Source ::: AFP JERUSALEM

A 17-year-old Palestinian girl, who became pregnant after her father raped her, was strangled to death by her brother in a so-called honour killing in the northern West Bank.The teenager was strangled by her 27-year-old brother on Wednesday in Bala’a town near the northern city of Tulkarem. Arrested by Palestinian security forces, the brother admitted he had killed her to “erase the shame” after her pregnancy began showing.

He also admitted knowing that his sister had become pregnant because their father raped her. Police are now hunting the 52-year-old father, who witnessed the murder, and has since disappeared.A Palestinian women’s group said the girl had reported the rape to the police after learning she was pregnant. “The police did not arrest or even question the father,” the group charged in an open letter published in another paper.

Signed by the Palestinian Working Women’s Society for Development, the letter called on the Palestinian parliament to adopt laws to protect women from all forms of violence.

Are humanbeings retarded? you kill your sister because you father raped her? wanted to erase shame? if he really wanted to do that, he should've killed his own father - that's how I'd define a so called "honour killing". Honour your sister you piece of crap.Life just isn't fair for such women. I hope these men rot in hell.
