It was bad enough that the alleged rape took place in the sanctity of a mosque and that the accused man was a mullah who invoked the familiar defence that it had been consensual sex.
But the victim was only 10 years old. And there was more: The authorities said her family members openly planned to carry out an honour killing in the case – against the young girl. The mullah offered to marry his victim instead.

unless you are a muslim man with the right connections....
[ I’m rather confused at why they don’t shed the blood of the rapist instead. But then again I am not Muslim. ]

Exactly why the "American" left sides with them. You'll hear no outrage from the left over this case. They will act like it didn't happen.
Well, to start with, they marry their first cousins when the girls are 9 years old, and these girls start producing children when they're 12 years old.
