MULTAN, Pakistan, July 17 (UPI) -- The brother of Pakistani model Qandeel Baloch admitted Saturday to killing her for dishonoring his family with racy online photos.
Police say Waseem Azeem, one of the model's six brothers, drugged and strangled her as she slept, USA Today reported.
Wazeem, accompanied by police at a news conference on Saturday, confessed to the killing, saying she "brought dishonor to the Baloch name."
"There were other issues as well..." Azeem said, referencing a controversy surrounding Baloch's selfies with a Muslim cleric, the Times of India reported..
Azeem said he was often taunted by others because of his sister's conduct and that he had told her to stop posting on social media, where she had gained thousands of fans.
Honor killings, which often involve women being killed for "dishonoring their families," have been on the rise in Pakistan. Human Rights Commission of Pakistan reported 1,096 women were killed in "honor crimes" in 2015.
Baloch was buried Sunday in her ancestral village in Dera Ghazi, abplive reported. The funeral reportedly had a large attendance.

It looks like she had it coming to her!
When this plus-sized Pakistani model took dishonorable photos with the porky cleric, she was doomed.

Muslims don’t appeal with love, they immediately jump to judgment and sentencing. No in between with these people.

In a civilized world, murder is many times worse than racy photos. Muzzies aren’t civilized.

Whereas, in the sick, twisted, mysoginistic death cult called "islam", murdering your sister in her sleep brings great "honor" to your family name...

No headscarf and wearing makeup. The brother was on a 'mission' from someone.

These people are NUTZ! There is no other way to describe them. Superstitious. They fear a dark god is waiting to devour them if they don't uphold that god's concept of honor.
