Pakistani man murders his daughter over divorce
July 10th, 2008 at 10:35 am by Clive Bellmore in Divorce, In-LawsChaudhry Rashid, a fifty-six year old Pakistani man, has been arrested for allegedly murdering his own daughter after she wanted to divorce her arranged marriage husband. According to reports, he felt he was somehow preserving his family’s honour by strangling his own daughter to death.
The murder happened in America, where the man and his family lived. Rashid was arrested by police who responded to a call on Sunday. His daughter was just 25 and hadn’t had any contact from her husband in several months.
The police were phoned by Rashid’s wife, who managed to escape her husband’s brutal attack on his daughter.
It’s again hard to understand how someone could murder their own daughter when her marriage to her husband fails.
