Those Pakistanis have no right to live in Britain.

For nearly a decade, they kept up the sham that they were grieving parents whose beautiful daughter had been kidnapped. In reality, Farzana and Iftikhar Ahmed were killers who murdered 17-year-old Shafilea because she simply wouldn't conform to the values of 'rural Pakistan' – and then terrorised the rest of their family into a sickening nine-year cover-up. Indeed, the killers were exposed only after Shafilea's younger sister plucked up the courage to tell how she and her siblings watched themsuffocate her in 2003. Mr Justice Roderick Evans said 'You chose to bring up your family in Warrington but your social and cultural attitudes were those of rural Pakistan.' 'Shafilea was a determined, able and ambitious girl who wanted to live a life which was normal in the country in which you had chosen to live and bring up your children. However, you could not tolerate the life that Shafilea wanted to live.' He said the fact her siblings witnessed the murder was 'a truly horrifying feature' of the case which had 'blighted' their lives too. He ordered both Iftikhar Ahmed, 52, and his 49-year-old wife to serve a minimum of 25 years in prison.
Yesterday, at the end of the ten-week trial, Mrs Ahmed wept as she was found guilty, while her taxi driver husband grimaced then uttered an obscenity at detectives. 'On the evening of 11th September 2003 you berated her for her behaviour and in temper and frustration you two suffocated her. It was you, Farzana Ahmed, who said to your husband: 'Finish it here'. 'In order to rid yourselves of that problem, you killed Shafilea by suffocating her in the presence of your other four children. 'You killed one daughter, but you have blighted the lives of your remaining children. 'Alesha escaped but she is unlikely to be able to avoid the legacy of her upbringing.' The 11-week trial became a showdown that pitted sibling against sibling and parent against parent. But In the end it was not forensics or a high tech bugging device which convicted Ahmed and his wife, Farzana, it was a simple question for the jury of who to believe.
Shafilea's sister, Alesha, 23, whose testimony was key in convicting her parents, sensationally told the court that she and the rest of her siblings witnessed the murder at the family home. But Taxi driver Mr Ahmed always denied murder, saying Shafilea ran away from home in the middle of the night and he never saw her again. Mrs Ahmed also denied murder but told the jury she saw her husband beat her eldest child and that she believed he killed her. Growing up in the UK, she liked the taste of freedom.

Some readers comments.

If they are so loyal to their family in Pakistan then perhaps they should go back there and save us the cost of locking them up for the next 20 years.

So wanting to be 'westernised' brings shame on the family, but murdering her does not????

To EVERYONE who objects to a "westernised" way of life, the answer is simple do not live in the western world!!!!!!

When will these people realise that if you come and live in the United Kingdom, you abide by the laws and freedoms of the land. You leave your own laws and odd bagge behind. You cannot, and must not attempt to rule your children in laws and ways that are alien to the society in which they were born in to, live with and wish to spend the rest of their lives in.

^^well said dude and most important these bastard should be give more then simple punishment and now what Goras do worng people blame that west people show bias towards Pakistanis but reality is that we are wrong all along the way . and most important that our so called beloved leaders past/present add the "Islamic Republic" with the name of pakistan the country which don't deserve it and due to the Pakistanis act every one say The people of Islamic republic did this did that . it damaging the reputation of Islam . dammit loser leaders if can't do any thing so kindly detach the name of islam from this doom nation and called our self only pakistani rather then Muslims

Because we are not even on the stage of human Muslim is the far superior form of human .

muslims are those who give there life's for islam but today Muslims are taking life's of people .

prophet teaching is about love which touch the feeling of non-muslims and he/she become muslim . prophet even haram the assassination of any non-muslim until in self defence and here muslims killing muslims for no reason

Well i have heard this kind of stories, Pakistani father killed daughter in America coz she was not doing parda. i wonder how this people get visa of foreign country, while some highly educated guy struggle to get a visa.

[wfsoomro]

I agree with Rahim. Waqai aisay log kaisay chalegaye jab becharo students ko visa k liye kya kya paapar belnay partay hain. It's sad man, as if Al Qaeda and terrorists aren't spoiling our name enough.

Well i have heard this kind of stories, Pakistani father killed daughter in America coz she was not doing parda. i wonder how this people get visa of foreign country, while some highly educated guy struggle to get a visa.

that question has always wondered me too.
Such people have no rights to live anywhere, I wonder where the honour goes when you murder your own blood.

[sshah]

There so so many cases like this in UK; parents murdering their daughters over adultery, throwing them in Pakistan by force and never looking back. As if our Awam was not Jahil enough, this pretty much seals the deal.

[RAJNI]

yes very true my dear brothers i heard this terrible news over the TV very famous informative news channel and i felt humiliated it feels like we specially the Pakistani Muslims are disgusted over this bad incident . can you imagine why our Pakistani People are called with Bad names specially in Britain ..?? due to this shameful acts that our seniors have done in front of them in there own land we Pakistani People are just like paying guest in Foreign Country . in my point of view these Parents Should Be HANGED till DEATH as soon as possible , they are disgraced to humanity and even a big shame on Muslims of the whole world .
Jab apni Aulaad ko Apni beti ya betay ko zangeer main qaid kar kay rakhnaa hi zindaagi hai to Foreign Countries Like Azaad Khayaali Ki Taraf Jaatay hi Keyoun Ho ??? Great Britain America Canada Australia Spain All over Europe there is only one Law of living which is called Liberty Of Speach Liberty Of Living Liberty On obeying ones own personal religion , Its there Faith And I Salute Them from the bottom of my Heart
