Teenager dies after being 'tied up and thrown into swamp in honour killing because her "Western behaviour" shamed the family - before father fled to Syria'

A teenager died after she was tied up and thrown into a swamp to drown in an honour killing because her Western behaviour shamed her family, according to prosecutors in the Netherlands. 

Ryan Al Najjar's brothers have now been put on trial for her murder, while her father, who is accused of ordering the killing, fled the country to return to Syria

Mohamed, 23, and Muhanad Al Najjar, 25, are charged with taking part in the horrific crime against their 18-year-old sister, whose body was found gagged with her hands bound behind her back, ankles taped together, and submerged in a swamp six days after she vanished from the family home in Joure. 

Their father, Khaled, will be tried in absentia. Ryan disappeared on May 22, 2024. A passerby discovered her body on May 28 in Lelystad, about 25 miles north-east of Amsterdam. 

Investigators later found DNA belonging to her father under her fingernails, indicating that she had put up a fight. 

Dutch prosecutors say Ryan was murdered because she had a boyfriend, behaved in a way her family considered 'Western,' and had 'shamed' them. 

The Public Prosecution Service formally designated her killing as an honour crime.

The brothers, whose trial began yesterday, insist they were not involved and say their father carried out the murder alone.

Khaled allegedly sent two emails to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf claiming responsibility and saying his sons were innocent. Prosecutors, however,...

Another rebuttal example for those on the left that say the islamic culture has much to offer to improve western civilization...

You know... for the “but the U.S. has always been a melting pot of cutures. Why is letting muslim refugees in, bad?”

Present the article... then have them dispute the comment:

Islam is incompatable with western civilization, because muslims feel this is the required cultural action for this stituation.

Good God, Bush is stupid. They used to make satire of him by posting pictures of him looking like an ape.

But that wasn't satire. It was apeology worthy of Jane Goodall.

Why can't we attract more of these people to come to live in the US? /S

A different country:

Manal Alsharif, a young woman found to have driven a car on her own in Khobar, Saudi Arabia, was found guilty and was sentenced to 10 lashes with a whip in public. Sept.27, 2011.

Saudi Arabia bans women, both citizens and foreign visitors, from driving vehicles.
