SNE, Iranian Kurdistan,— A 31-year-old Kurdish woman in Sne (Sanandaj) city in Iranian Kurdistan has been killed by her family for what it is referred as “honor reasons.”

According to Hengaw Organization, which reports on human rights abuses in the Iranian Kurdistan, the young woman identified as Sargul Habibi, 31-year-from village of Sorkhedzaj (Suvraze), a few kilometers from Sne in Iranian Kurdistan, was beaten by her brothers on excuses of honor and was then brutally beheaded.

Sargul Habibi was recently detained by the police accused of having relationship with a young man, but both were released a day later, the watchdog said.

Sargul Habibi’s body was buried on Monday, in Muhammadi Cemetery of Sne in complete silence and without any funerals .

Even two days after the brutal murder of a young woman in Sne by her brothers, the judiciary has not yet made any official statement on the matter and none of the young woman’s brothers have been prosecuted or detained by the police

According to statistics registered in Statistics and Documentation Data Center of Hengaw Human Rights Organization, during past 9 months, at least 4 women in Iranian Kurdistan have been killed by their relatives on the excuses of honor.

Honor killings are a common feature in traditional Kurdistan, where women who are deemed to have dishonored the family by associating with men who are not immediate relatives are killed by a relative.

Violence against women and girls is common and endemic in Iranian Kurdistan, Iraqi Kurdistan and Turkey Kurdistan.

Many other Kurdish women face forced and underage marriage, domestic violence or polygamy issues.

Maybe the women in these hellhole cultures need to stand up to their men

You gotta be kidding me!

When fathers are willing to murder their wives and daughters and when brothers are willing to murder their sisters and there's no females are left alive in the country. That'll show-em.

Update, Khamenei may have bitten the big one...

Iran, media: "Grave Guida Suprema Khamenei". I poteri passano al figlio

Other cultures have figured out how to tell men they can’t murder their daughters and wives.

Maybe there’s something in the barbarity for the women too... incentives first world people wouldn’t understand. Either way I’m sick of the pity party... Some of those cultures also abuse animals - and I don’t want to hear the details or be outrages if it’s ‘OK’ with them.
