Till now we had heard of honor killings from interior villages in India – but, it has now spread its tentacles into far off Arizona. An Iraqi father could not tolerate the way his daughter was living – so, he took it upon himself to punish her. The daughter Noor Faleh Almaleki (20) was married in Iraq but, she had found another man in America – she was staying with him and his mother. So, the angry father rammed his jeep into her as she was going to the car park – the girl was in coma for two weeks in the hospital before succumbing to the injuries. Faleh Hassan Almaleki (48) tried to flee the country but failed.
