Iranian killed for talking to his wife in public
An Iranian university student talking to his wife at a bus stop was murdered by another student upset over a public conversation between the sexes, the ISNA student news agency reported on Sunday. Towhid Ghafarzadeh Nadi was killed in the northeastern town of Sabzevar, where his death prompted a protest march by students, ISNA said. The murderer questioned the couple over their relationship, which led to a violent scuffle, and the murderer stabbed his victim with a knife, said the Office for the Consolidation of Unity, a reformist student group. The man later told police that he had acted because his religious sensibilities were injured by seeing a young man and a young woman talking in public, the statement added.Posted by: Fred 2006-11-20 |
