Family Charged With Failing To Help Woman Beaten To Death
You know, this headline should apply to the guys who were at that knife attack we posted the other day.
This from the Evening Courier:
The family of a man who beat his wife to death must have known what was happening to the young woman in the Leeds house where they all lived, a court has been told.
A jury heard how Shazad Khan, 25, caused his new wife Sabia Rani, 19, horrendous injuries when he attacked her on a number of occasions at their home in Leeds.
After she died in May 2006, Ms Rani was found to have bruising to 90% of her body and had up to 15 broken ribs. Her injuries were described in court as being similar to those suffered by someone in a serious road accident.
Khan was found guilty of murdering his wife a year ago at Leeds Crown Court.
On Monday his mother, Phullan Bibi, 52, two of his sisters, Uzma Khan, 23, and 28-year-old Nazia Naureen, and Naureen’s husband, Majid Hussain, also 28, went on trial accused of failing to do anything to help Ms Rani.
All four deny a charge of allowing the death of a vulnerable adult.
Khan and Hussain also deny committing perjury at the murder trial last year.
Simon Myerson QC, prosecuting, told the court how medical evidence showed Ms Rani must have been in severe pain and very ill in the weeks before her death.
But Mr Myerson said the four defendants, who all lived in the same house in Oakwood Grange, Roundhay, in Leeds, did not help her.
He said Ms Rani was brought up in rural Pakistan, did not speak English, only came to England five months before she died and was not allowed out of the house without a member of her husband’s family.

To the red ant hill with the lot of them. Don’t waste a bullet or a perfectly good rope. They all deserve a slow death…same as they gave that little girl.
January 8th, 2008 at 4:51 pmDamn straight. When things like this are going on, people need to come forward and help the peopple that need it.
If it is found they knew what was goin on, they deserve to be punished as well.
January 8th, 2008 at 4:58 pmTruth be told, the family members were probably holding her down while the asshole was beating her.
National Organism of Women still silent…puke cowards.

January 8th, 2008 at 5:17 pmI know a Iranian group that split during the Iraq-Iran war, very cool people, became US citizens, actually deserted from the Iranian Army and ended up in New Mexico. They drink and chase women, totally westernized and educated.
January 8th, 2008 at 5:20 pmDamn. I can’t support Sharia law. But then again…
January 8th, 2008 at 8:12 pmThese cowards shouldn’t be allowed to consume anymore valuable air. There a waste of good carbon.
January 8th, 2008 at 8:14 pmTime to ask Obama, the Hildabeast, CodePink, fat ass Rosie and NOW what their thoughts are on this subject as well as “honor” killing. Actually, the fact that they have not muttered a word on either subject suggests their stance would seem to be “pro” this type of behavior. After all, they don’t want to risk the chance of having a couple Muslims not back what they stand for! Which is after all, the same. Guilty as charged.

“Moderate Muslims”, every one of them.
So tell me again what the difference between moderate & radical is?
