| Man slits child brideÂ’s throat |
| 2007-04-19 |
| A man allegedly slaughtered his 14-year-old wife in Mohammad Agha district of the central Logar province last night, police said. Colonel Qudratullah Arabzai, crime branch chief of the police headquarters, told Pajhwok Afghan News on Monday the couple had married six months back. The marriage was on the basis of Badal or exchange marriage, and the two families used to quarrel with each other, said the police officer. Arabzai said the accused Dad Mohammad was in police custody. Body of the slain woman was still in the house of her in-laws and had not been handed over to her parents, he informed. Nasrin's mother Qudsia said her daughter did not visit them since her marriage six months back. She told Pajhwok Afghan News, Nasrin was upset and used to complain her over the telephone about the rude behaviour of her husband for the previous two weeks. Revealing the ordeal of her teenaged daughter, the dejected mother said Dad Mohammad (the accused) used to tie her (Nasrin's) hands and feet and beat her severely. Faqir Mohammad, neighbour of the accused, said family life of the couple was very disturbed. He said Nasrin was banned from meeting any one outside the four walls of her house. |

| #6 Perfesser - I agree with your point and it is well taken. While it is not condoned or protected here, we have our share of horrific stories right here at home. That was my point - that these acts don't stop at the border. |

| #4 Angaiger Tojo1904: Evil has no state or government? I can name a dozen off the top of my head. Evil has a religion, it has an address and it has a meteorite shrine that should have been leveled 1400 years ago. |

| #2 As someone with some contact to the foster care system, I am somewhat uncomfortable with these types of articles. Evil has no state or government boundries. |

| #1 A 13-13 1/2 year od girl is NOT an adult woman, mentally or physically, although I'm sure the ACLU, NOW, and other FemmiRadicals will argue the point despite knowing the contrary, espec to protect Govt-subsidized "abortion-on-demand". |
