Pak immigrant beat his wife to death because she made him the wrong dinner
[DAILYMAIL.CO.UK] A Pak immigrant allegedly beat his wife to death with a stick for making him the wrong dinner, a court heard.

Noor Hussein, 75, believed he had the right to discipline 66-year-old Nazar at their apartment in Brooklyn, New York, his defense said.

But prosecutors claim he murdered her because she had made the mistake of cooking him a vegetarian meal made of lentils instead of goat meat.

Defense attorney Julie Clark said Hussein admitted beating his wife but said that in his home country, beating your wife is customary.
But even in the Land of the Pure leaving your wife a soulless lump of cooling flesh in the corner of the room is frowned upon unless someone's honour is involved. And while Esau sold his for a bowl of lentils, some say, that left no bodies lying about.
