We reported that nine members of a Pakistani family based in Denmark were put on trial on Monday May 15. They were accused on charges of conspiring to murder, relating to the killing of Ghazala Khan (pictured left) on September 23 last year.
Ghazala was shot in the street, in broad daylight, outside Slagelse train station, in western Zealand, west of Copenhagen. The incident, captured on camera (below) involved Ghazala being shot twice in the heart by her 29-year old brother. The brother also shot Ghazala's Afghan husband, the reason for the family's anger.
The brother had insisted that the shooting was accidental, and that he had no intention of killing Ghazala. She had betrayed the family's "honour" by marrying her Afghan boyfriend in secret, and not gaining her parents' consent. This had been the ninth case of honor killing in a decade in Denmark, the prosecution claimed.

So, since tis is Europe the punishment is -what? Surely not something as harsh as panties on their heads.

The usual tactic these pondscum use is sending the youngest family member capable of murder to do the job - that way only one person goes down for it and he is usually given a light sentence since it is Europe and it is usually a first offense.
Convicting the whole extended family is excellent - really sends a message.

Maybe they rot in hell for their actions. I hold honor killing of one of your own family members to be very dishonorable and wicked. For marrying someone you don't like? That is just cowardly and insane.
I hope they all rot for decades in the prison system and never see the light of freedom again. Her family was no family in the end.
To: MrEdd
Probably a few hours of community service followed by free counselling to overcome the distress of being found guilty.

I wouldn't get worked up. I'm sure they will get almost no time in prison as usual. Eurabia musn't upset its multicultural applecart.

Denmark is one of the few countries in Western Europe with any balls. They've refused to punish the cartoonists who drew caricatures of Muhammad and they've backed the U.S. in Iraq. We may actually see a punishment with teeth on this.

I am very glad to see they are enforcing their laws. Perhaps Eurabia isn't so close. It seems the citizens are fed up.

And this is the religion that the New York Times and the left-wing fascist Democrats want us to have when they surrender to the Islamic fascist terrorist.
I assume that the NYTs has its berkas ready for its female workers: But I forgot females are not allowed to work so forget about that.

Honour killing - The Muslim version of the Jerry Springer show. Not only are the Muslims dangerous to women, they also do really ridiculous things.
To: EBH
Although lawyers of seven of the defendants sought a reduced sentence for their clients, jurors rejected their plea that mitigating circumstances should release a milder sentence.GOOD! Send an unmistakable message that 'honor killings' are NOT acceptable in Western Culture. If they want to do that crap, they can move to a Muslim country that allows it.

What monsters. The uncontrolled meanness of these people is vile beyond belief.

Is this in the Islamic religion or is it cultural? Sick, savage, barbaric, revolting. This thinking suits a pack of jackals, not humans.

Depending on who one converses with it can be construed either way. Basic observation though leads one to think it part of their religion. The practice is evident throughout the Middle East and North Africa. It is slowly becoming evident in Europe. And it has happened here in the United States as well.
