Farzana Parveen was stoned to death by her own family in front of a Pakistani court house for marrying the man she loved. Her husband Muhammad Iqbal said police watched and did nothing as her family beat her with bricks.

Then there’s this…
Her husband today admitted he strangled his first wife to death in order to marry Farzana.

Muhammad Iqbal was released from jail because his son forgave him.
CNN reported:

The husband of Farzana Parveen, the Pakistani woman stoned to death for refusing to participate in an arranged marriage, told CNN he killed his first wife so he could marry Parveen.

Authorities said the first wife was killed six years ago.

“I wanted to send a proposal to Farzana, so I killed my wife,” Mohammad Iqbal said Thursday in an interview with CNN.

Zulfiqar Hameed, district inspector general for the Punjab police, said Iqbal’s son from the first marriage alerted police to the slaying six years ago.

Iqbal was arrested but later released on bail because his son forgave him, Hameed said.

The son, Aurengzeb, who is in his 20s, confirmed his father’s statements to CNN. He said his father served a year in jail.

Parveen, who was three months pregnant, was beaten to death with bricks Tuesday in the eastern city of Lahore by a group of about 20 people, including her brothers, father and cousin, police said.

Police have arrested Parveen’s father and are searching for the other killers in this all-too-common crime.

What a barbaric culture.
