Girlsâ âhusbandsâ swear vengeance
 MIANWALI: Five men released on bail in the Chidroo Vani case on Monday vowed to marry the girls promised to them or else continue their vendetta against the latterâs families. The girlsâ brothers have sworn they will kill the men rather than hand their sisters over. Iqbal Khan was convicted of murdering Zaman Khan and was sentenced to death. However, a punchayat decided that five girls from Iqbalâs family would be wedded in Zamanâs family as reconciliation and the case was withdrawn. Later, Iqbalâs family said the girls did not want to marry the men. The enraged men attacked the girlsâ brothers and injured two. Presently, the girlsâ fathers have offered Zamanâs family money, land and other belongings to end the conflict.Posted by: Fred 2005-11-22 |
