Austrian Man Shoots Colleague, Slices off Penis in 'Honor Killing'

VIENNA, Austria — Austrian authorities said Thursday they arrested an elderly Turkish-born man suspected of fatally shooting a younger Turkish associate and slicing off the victim's penis in what investigators called an "honor killing."

...

Officials said witnesses claimed the man allegedly shot the victim, a 58-year-old Turkish-born man, in the street with a shotgun at point-blank range and then cut off his penis with a knife, leaving him to bleed to death.

Two teams of surgeons worked at the scene to save the man but were unable to revive him, authorities said.

Investigators believe the suspect apparently was jealous that the younger man had flirted with his wife, and had sought him out as "a question of honor," said Franz Polzer, head of the region's criminal investigations office.

Honor killings, driven by the view that a family's honor is paramount, are an ancient tradition associated with Kurdish regions of Turkey, Iraq and Iran as well as tribal areas in Pakistan and some Arab societies.

These people are ANIMALS.

They are sadistic and use Islam as their excuse.

Their "religion" is uncivilized and ungodly. No rational person will be able to find "common ground" with these evil people.

You’d think a “point-blank shotgun blast to the head” would suffice. The Lorena Bobbit job seems like overkill.

I would think the shotgun blast at point-blank range would have done him in instantly.

What did he do with the penis after cutting it off? I suspect most Islamists have latent homo issues.

A new Anschluss for a new century.

Nancy Pelosi,,,,,oh yea, keyword is rational.

[RockinRight]

Islam=Evil.

I wouldn’t call 58 “elderly” though.

So is double posting.

I’m sensing a trend.

“ROP” never ceases to live up to its status as an Oxy Moron...

I didn’t see in the article where the blast was to the head. But it seems any pointblank shotgun blast would do the job all by itself unless it hit his legs or something.

This is bound to help the Turkish bid to join the EU.

[skeeter]

I’m so glad our leaders have decided to give many of these lovelies a second chance in the west as our next door neighbors.

“Austrian” man?

[rottndog]

What did he do with the penis after cutting it off?

Vienna sausage?

If you have to cut a guy's penis off to make him bleed to death after you shot him at point-blank range with a shotgun, then you might be a piss-poor marksman.

Their heathen brains and customs are stuck in the 15th century. I assume the next step is for Austria to assuage their white European guilt and increase the immigration limits to let more of them in. That’s the usual pattern.

"Honor killings, driven by the view that a family's honor is paramount, are an ancient tradition associated with Kurdish regions of Turkey, Iraq and Iran as well as tribal areas in Pakistan and some Arab societies."

The media will do anything but tell the truth- "honor killings" is an Islamic 'family tradition'. Kurds are Islamic, they follow the Pedophile Mohammad and his talking rock.

It was the "younger" victim that was 58.
