Afghan sentenced to life for stabbing teenage sister 28 times in Austria ‘honor’ killing | |
2018-08-23 | |
![]() The man, in his early twenties, pleaded guilty to murdering his younger sister in September 2017. He received the maximum penalty. The victim, who was aged around 17 or 18, had fled domestic violence at the hands of both her father and brother and sought refuge in a shelter when her brother found her and confronted her on her way to school. The motive came from a "wrongheaded sense of honor that is not in line with the values of central European society," judge Stefan Apostol was quoted by Austrian news agency APA as saying. The man, who came to Vienna in 2013, is appealing the sentence. "I want to ask for forgiveness. I committed a crime," the perpetrator, who was not named, is quoted as saying in court, adding that he did it "because of the culture."

#5 When he dies repatriate the body to the uncivilised country he spawned from. Let him lay where he drops. Give his life some value. See Norwegian Reindeer. |

#3 BP, I recommend he be buried in pigskin. Actually, if/when Sharia is established in Austria, he will be freed. |
