12 year old murdered by Father, Uncles to “preserve family honor”

Why? Because she was found “with a boy in her room”

Islam related? Doesn’t say in the article, but I wouldn’t be surprised…

The victim’s grandmother, Natho (60), told Newsline that her sons killed Mamta after they found a boy, Pintu (14), her schoolmate, in her room late on Friday night. Father Jagdish Singh and his brother Soni Singh then allegedly burnt her body and dumped it in a well.

The police are, however, yet to recover the body and have registered a case of murder against Singh and his two brothers, who are at large.

And the Grandmother SAYS SHE DESERVED IT.  Sick people…

Natho said Mamta was dear to her, but what she did was “unacceptable” and that she “deserved” the punishment. “How could she let a boy into her room?”

“We were sleeping and were supposed to wake early because there was a wedding in the family. Around 9.30 pm, I heard a noise and went to Mamta’s room. I saw Pintu there. Seeing the boy, her father and uncles got angry and started beating her up. The beating continued till she died,” Natho said with a straight face.

    This is what islam is all about. Look at the life of their hero, the
    so-called prophet Muhammad. He was a killer, a thief, a liar and a
    pedophile. This is the man muslims revere as the perfect example of how a
    human should behave. That is why.

    I agree with allahlovesporkchops, its barbaric..

    It doesn't matter what religion they are. It would be just as disgraceful/savage if they were Choctaw, Buddhist, Zulu, etc. The barbaric/savage practice of murdering to reclaim supposed "honor" is an insult to the entire human race.
  • All of you morons bashing me for posting this, obviously didn't see the one line of commentary before the quote...

    I said..."Islam related? Doesn’t say in the article, but I wouldn’t be surprised…"

    Nobody EVER said it was Islam related. I said I wouldn't be surprised because of the countless other Honor Killings committed by muslims that we've covered on this site over the last 2 years. Quit making asses out of yourselves if you can't read one line of text after the headline...

    Besides, so what if their name is "Singh"?? They could have converted to Islam for all you know...not everyone who converts to Islam changes their name.

    You should check your facts before you post. Honor killings are indeed common in Muslim communities, but they also happen in other middle eastern and Indian communities. In this case, every name is a non-muslim name, yet this website managed to identify this family as muslim....Dont you think its better not to try and solve the problems of infidels about whom you apparently know so little?
  • G-dlover
    Stupidest post ever. What part of "Singh" sounds Muslim to you?
  • The name "Singh" is a bit of a giveaway. Islam does not have a complete monopoly on deranged misogyny.

    You idiot !
    You can't even tell a Sikh from a muslim
  • amina
    Ahem,

    the family are sikhs. do try to get your stories right.....

    Could be Hindu or Sikh, too. Although dishonor killings occur mostly in Arab/Muslim countries and in Arab/Muslim communities elsewhere, some do occur in other places, including the subcontinent (among non-Muslims).

    That is the most disgusting thing I have heard today. How can a father beat his daughter to death, burn her body and throw her down a well? Oh, I'm sure it was in the name of Allah, these people make me physically ill!
