more men are killed by other men, than women.

Is it racist to say anything about a religion?

It's not about an ethnic group - anyone can support it. And one can hardly class Islam as minority or marginalised.

Sounds to me like a clash of cultures within a culture. Backward thinking man spurned by modern, educated female. How very dare she?!! Very sad indeed. Poor girl.

[emmie]

indeed poor girl, she only went out there for a wedding.....

[david small]

We should place sanctions upon Pakistan. Let us be clear. Such barbaric behaviour is unacceptable. We are not in the 7th century.

david: " We are not in the 7th century" - no but sadly most of Islam is!

at the death of a woman - all you can manage is 'belter' and foo !
the flood of crap that seems to engulf your posts

If thy right hand offends thee, chop it off. Islam offends millions of decent people.

//indeed poor girl, she only went out there for a wedding.....//

Doesn't warrant her murder, of course, but I hope the wedding was of a close relative and that both the participants live outside the UK. It was obviously a long reception as I believe she'd been in Pakistan for two months.

"If thy right hand offends thee, chop it off. Islam offends millions of decent people. "

and therefore... what?

[emmie]

as i said she could have come home, but chose to stay for a while, perhaps she had thoughts of staying for good, who knows...

[ummmm]

She's of Pakistani decent. She probably stayed to get to see family members.

[emmie]

two months though, that;s quite a long while for someone who was only seeing family...

[ummmm]

Depends on how big the family is.

[emmie]

likely have a largeish family, perhaps she stayed on because she had met someone, i guess the truth will out sooner than later.
i hope they get the perpetrators who did this horrible crime.

[Mozz71]

Of course, it is a possibility that she had no choice in staying in Pakistan, and may have been forced to do so by whoever it was she got involved with over there.

[emmie]

but her family live in UK. she could have surely gone home any time she liked.

[Mozz71]

Not if she was being forced to remain. Obviously, it's just speculation, but it seems strange that a young woman in her position would throw away the years of study for her degree by staying over there.

[emmie]

terrible story whatever the truth - another barbaric killing of a young woman..
