Daughter buried alive for talking to boys
« on: February 05, 2010, 08:22:25 AM »

Turkish police have recovered the body of a 16-year-old girl they say was buried alive by relatives in an "honour" killing carried out as punishment for talking to boys.

The girl, who has been identified only by the initials MM, was found in a sitting position with her hands tied, in a two-metre hole dug under a chicken pen outside her home in Kahta, in the south-eastern province of Adiyaman.

Police made the discovery in December after a tip-off from an informant, the Turkish newspaper Hurriyet reported on its website.

The girl had previously been reported missing.

The informant told the police she had been killed following a family "council" meeting.

Her father and grandfather are said to have been arrested and held in custody pending trial. It is unclear whether they have been charged. The girl's mother was arrested but was later released.

Media reports said the father had told relatives he was unhappy that his daughter – one of nine children – had male friends. The grandfather is said to have beaten her for having relations with the opposite sex.

A postmortem examination revealed large amounts of soil in her lungs and stomach, indicating that she had been alive and conscious while being buried. Her body showed no signs of bruising.

The discovery will reopen the emotive debate in Turkey about "honour" killings, which are particularly prevalent in the impoverished south-east.

Official figures have indicated that more than 200 such killings take place each year, accounting for around half of all murders in Turkey.

I've heard of "honor killings" before and they're all assinine, but this one was particularly barbaric. How could these "people" call themselves parents when their love for their daughter was so ruthlessly conditional? How can any child whose family shares similar "values" feel safe, knowing that those closest to them could turn so brutal over this kind of transgression?

In all fairness, I would bury my daughter alive if I ever caught her talking to Illy.

I can't picture Illy talking to girls. Aside from Hazzy, of course.

I talk to girls all the time like "heyyyyyy, I'm Illy, want to go back to my place so we can have coffee and sex and what not?" and they're like "ok".  Then it.  is.  on.
