14-year-old girl's 'killer' not unstable - relatives
2005-01-30
He couldn't possibly be unstable, since he's on the shariah faculty... I mean, he couldn't be. Could he?
A Kuwaiti man employed at the Islamic Studies Department of the Ministry of Awqaf and Islamic Studies is said to have admitted during interrogations with the Hawalli Prosecution to slitting the throat of his 14-year-old daughter to "wash the shame," reports Al-Rai Al-Aam daily. Earlier, it was published the father, identified only as Adnan, after returning from Saudi Arabia last Monday where he had gone to perform the Islamic ritual Hajj, killed his daughter identified as Asma. He believed she had lost her virginity which Forensic reports proved otherwise.

The daily quoting relatives of the suspect said the man tied his daughter's hands behind her back, blindfolded her with a piece of cloth, turned her head in the direction of Kaaba in Saudi Arabia and slit her throat. The suspect's brother, identified as Adel, said his brother is mentally unstable. This claim has been refuted by one of the relatives saying if he was mentally unstable, he would have not gone to perform Hajj or joined the Faculty of Sharia at the Kuwait University. It has been reported the victim, was well-known for fasting keeping in line with the Muslim tradition. She had also been awarded several certificates of appreciation for learning by heart verses from the Holy Quran.

I think that they have it backwards. It proves that he is mentally unstable. Spending a fortune to go throw stones at something, taking the chance of getting trampled. Not to mention attending Sharia U.
