Honor Killing in Berlin
-
 "Honor" Killing in Berlin. Hatun Surucu, 23, was killed on her way to a bus stop in Berlin-Tempelhof by several shots to the head and upper body, fired at point-blank range by 3 of her brothers. "On a school playground, just yards from where the killing occurred, [muslim boys] were heard praising [Hatun's murder]." Link. Of Turkish descent, Hatun was the single mother of a 5-year-old son attempting to live and work in Western society apart from her muslim family having left a forced marriage to her cousin. One would think this is an aberration in Germany but it is the 45th reported honor killing in the last 8 years. If there is a hell, then these three brothers and their father shall find a suitable home. 12-04-2005. Add Comment Permalink
