680 news reports that the father-in-law is charged with first degree murder in killing of 22 year old lady. They report it as a honour killing.

I wonder what kind of mentality leads to killing your own family member?? If things are not going well between couple, why not take a divorce instead? Or is it less shameful to be charged with a first degree murder than to be labelled as a father of a divorced son? For now, the husband of that lady is nowhere in the picture

I hope that media does not stereotype the entire Indian community due to this one incident. May that lady's soul rest in peace and condolences to her family.

... in keeping with the same honor killing spirit, i hope the father in law is sentenced to death... after all... 'kaise mooh dikhaye ga society mein jail jaaney ke badh (isnt' that the indian mentality also)'.

Such rubbish.... cold blooded murder and they minimize it to Honor killing....

I have always wished that i could open a center where immigrant women could come and learn skills to make them selves independent and not have such fate...

May her soul rest in peace and i hope her child is taken by the CPS and sent to her maternal grand parents.
