Honor Trumps Life
Sep 20, 2006
The Telegraph via Western Resistance:
Two men murdered a six-year-old girl by setting fire to her house to warn her brother off a relationship he was having, a court heard yesterday.
These men followed the Religion-That-Must-Not-Be-Named.
Alisha Begum suffered 95 per cent burns and died after a masked man burst into her home, sprayed petrol around and set it alight. The fire spread so quickly that members of her family had to jump out of upstairs windows to escape.
Who's responsible:
Birmingham Crown Court heard the attack was planned by Hussain Ahmed, a 26-year-old dentist, and Daryll Tuzzio, 18, after Ahmed found out his 15-year-old sister was seeing Alisha's brother, Abdul Hamid, 21. Yesterday the two men went on trial accused of murder and the attempted murder of nine of the girl's relatives who escaped from the blazing house in Aston, Birmingham.
To be fair, I wouldn't be surprised to see something like this from non-muslims also. Older brothers tend to get pretty protective when they find out their 15 year old sister is dating a 21 year old man. Religion has little to do with it.
