Honour Killing: Shafelia Ahmed

Today we’re going to take a deeper look into an unspoken pandemic that tragically is still very real today and very prevalent. Honour Killings.When a young person is reported missing, and likely murdered, the police are usually the ones that have to keep composed and calm in the face of the victims loved ones emotional devastation; except when it’s those very same loved ones who turn out to be the reason the person is even dead in the first place. In todays case, a home, that should have been a place of security and comfort instead was a place of beatings, enforced isolation, and finally of death.For case photos and/or to discuss todays case head to the Cup of Coffee and Crime Facebook discussion group Hosted on Acast.
