Girl buried alive in honour killing in Turkey

ANKARA - A 16-year-old girl was buried alive by relatives in southeast Turkey in a gruesome honour killing just because she reportedly befriended boys, the Anatolia news agency reported Thursday.

Acting on a tip-off, police discovered Medine Memi's body in a sitting position with her hands tied, in a two-metre-deep hole in a chicken pen outside her house in Kahta town, Adiyaman province, 40 days after she went missing, the agency said.

A subsequent post mortem revealed that she had a significant amount of soil in her lungs and stomach, meaning that she was buried alive, foresic experts told the agency.

"The autopsy result is blood-curdling. According to our findings, the girl -- who had no bruises on her body and no sign of narcotics or poison in her blood -- was alive and fully conscious when she was buried," one anonymous expert said.

Medine's father and grandfather have been formally arrested and jailed pending trial over her killing, the agency said.

The father is reported to have said in his testimony that the family was unhappy she had male friends.

In honour killings, most prevalent in Turkey's mainly Kurdish southeast, a so-called family council names a member to murder a female relative considered to have sullied the family honour, usually by engaging in an extra-marital affair.

But the practice has gone so far as to kill rape victims or women who simply talked to strange men.

The cure for this is to make it hard for Islamic clerics to make a living. Kill the bastards.

I REALLY have to start a scrap book of these articles so I can pull it out and stuff it down the shirt of the next stupid bastard I run into who starts telling me that Islam is just another religion.

These people are neither savages nor animals.

There is no word in the extensive English vocabulary which adequately describes their degeneracy.

And the TURKS - our “Allies” the “progressive” Muslims!

HAH!!

It is becoming increasingly difficult to believe that these people are not possessed by Satan himself.

Bury the killers alive, too. But be nice, don’t bury them all the way. Leave their heads above ground.
