A controversial female celebrity dubbed Pakistans Kim Kardashian has been strangled to death by her brother in what appears to be the countrys highest-profile honor killing.
Qandeel Baloch, 26, had shot to fame in recent months with a series of divisive publicity stunts starkly at odds with the countrys conservative values, most notably promising to strip for Pakistans cricket team if it beat India in the recent cricket T20 World Cup.
Her Facebook page on which she regularly posted provocative selfie photographs had 750,000 followers, but had also become a target of misogynistic abuse and threats. [ ]
Hundreds of women are killed every year in Pakistan often by their own family members for violating the countrys conservative norms regarding love and marriage.

Mmmm...must be Hindu or Christian or even Buddhist.
Very very sad. Despicable brutality.
Pray for their souls and that they may find Jesus.
‘Pod.
You mean “Pockeestan”?
Wonder if zero was a follower... of the brother.
Brothers and sisters.... so wholesome.
Islam is not a “family first” religion, philosophy, or culture.
Let's be clear: these are not "conservative" norms. These are sharia norms.
The media loves to do that! Find barbaric morals from some 7th century tribe and label them “conservative”. The media considers this a broad attack which somehow makes Republicans the bad guy.
And this is the “Torygraph” reporting in this manner. Are they and the Daily Wail (who just celebrated Erdogan’s victory over the coup) trying to go further left than the Guardian?
Maybe we could send the real Kim Kardashian to Pockeestan.
Does the real Kim Kardashian have any brothers? Just wondering....
Yes; Rob Kardashian. His sisters are older than he is.
Honor Killing,,,
Pathetic Hypocrisy.
A girl sacrificed to a Death Culture,
in vain.
Probably just as well they’re not Pakistani Muslims, then.
This has nothing to do with Islam except she was killed because she had a soda while the sun was up.
This is real oppression of women. Unfortunately the western Feminists won’t talk about for even a second.
That’s why her brother killed her.
I think Mullah is involved. She had a picture with him and it created controversy in Pakistan.
