Family members … sat in court holding hands at the judge handed down the sentence.
In a statement after the hearing, they said: "On this day, there is no celebration, for we have forever lost a dearly loved daughter, sister, mother and friend. "
"Her life was cut short in the most brutal manner, by a barbaric man, with out-dated and backward ideals. "How dare they!
Oh. Hang on…
OK. Never mind.

My views on this are changing.
She had the chance to get rid of him and chose instead to roll the dice. She lost. We won, as he is in jail, which keeps him away from us. At least for a few years anyway because of our Mickey Mouse justice system.
Perhaps if people like her actually had the sense to walk away from these guys with the protection of the law, as people like him don't give up easily, we could send the right message but while there are so many who forgive so easily they will continue to flourish.
I just don't understand why women seem to have this thing for bad people. Girls I understand but grown up women who are getting battered?
Cutting your wife's head, clean orf, with a knife may well be acceptable where this 'gentleman' hails from. But in England we do things different. A light tongue lashing would be deemed sufficient, or in extremis, a gentle, but firm, head-butting would certainly clear the marital air/airways.
So in 1997 Labour wasted no time in abolishing the primary purpose rule. The year after this man appears in the country to marry his cousin.

Who might never have got into the country but for Blair and Co., who wasted no time in abolishing the primary purpose rule in 1997. Ahmed turned up to marry his cousin the year after.
A human sacrifice to multiculturalism. I hope Mr Blair is very proud.
Gates of Vienna blog has a story about a Turk setting his pregnant German girlfriend alight because she would not have an abortion.
Oops, bit of unintentional repetition in my last. Monday morning!
Oh the joys of an imported husband! His wife's illness is due to autosomal recessive inheritance so I guess her parents were related and they failed to learn from her genetic problems and imported a cousin. Question: how much does this cost the NHS? As all her children are either affected or carriers, will they too marry cousins from Pakistan in need of a visa and produce another generation of Morquio's syndrome sufferers?
"Perhaps if people like her actually had the sense to walk away from these guys with the protection of the law..."
I point that out at every commentable story I see. When my comment isn't moderated out of existence, it draws a furious response from the usual suspects.
Apparently, it's not considered 'PC' to say this.
*shrugs*
"The year after this man appears in the country to marry his cousin."
Great, isn't it? :/
"His wife's illness is due to autosomal recessive inheritance so I guess her parents were related and they failed to learn from her genetic problems and imported a cousin. "
Well, I'm sure our NHS can cope...
