US Muslim TV boss arrested for beheading wife
The founder of an American Muslim television channel, launched to counter the negative stereotypes of Muslims after 9/11, was arrested in New York late Thursday for beheading his estranged wife.
We've had this story a couple times, now al-Arabiya's picked it up. So far it's not burning up the U.S. press, though.
Muzzammil Hassan, 44, was charged with second-degree murder hours after he went to the police and told them his wife's dead body was at the Bridges TV office in Buffalo, New York, local papers reported.

" Obviously this is the worst form of domestic violence possible "
District Attorney
Police, who are still searching for the murder weapon, identified the victim as Aasiya Hassan, 37, and said she had recently filed for divorce from Hassan and sought a restraining order barring him from the family home, Buffalo News reported.

"Obviously this is the worst form of domestic violence possible," the paper quoted District Attorney Frank A. Sedita III as saying.
Someone ought to ask the newspapers just how often beheadings occur in western New York, and then ask, if it is that uncommon, why they aren't covering this one.
