A Muslim mother and father who murdered their own daughter for bringing 'shame' on the family because she had sex with a man they did not approve of have been caged for life in Germany.The so-called 'honour killing' of Lareeb Khan, 19, was carried out by her father Azadullah, 52, who crept into her bedroom at night and strangled her while her mother Shazia, 42, looked on.The killing was triggered because they learned she had tried to steal condoms for her illicit sex sessions with her lover.Both then disposed of the body of the 'bright and talented' youngster whose only crime was to fall in love with a 23-year-old man called Raheel they disapproved of. The court heard how he crept into her room as she slept and strangled her while her mother looked on. Both then dressed dead daughter Lareeb, a dental technician, in her clothes.They then wheeled her in the wheelchair used by Lareeb's grandmother from their high-rise apartment to the family car, drove to a secluded embankment in their home city of Darmstadt and tipped the corpse down it.Mother Shazia would later tell police that she did not intervene to try to save her daughter out of fear of her husband. But the court learned she was every bit as fanatical as him and was often at loggerheads with Lareeb.

Khan told police after the killing:

'My daughter could not defend herself because one arm was pinned under the mattress and she could not speak because I was applying so much pressure. I noticed that after five minutes she was dead but I continued to press.'

He said they dumped her body and planned to tell people she had run away. But her corpse was found the next day and the parents confessed to the crime almost immediately.

Judge Wagner heard the father take all the guilt for the crime, that his wife did not have the strength to resist him. Axel Kollbach, her lawyer, asked for her to be sentenced only for help in disposing of the body, not murder, and to take into account the 'cultural background' to the crime.

But Judge Wagner was having none of it, stating:

She clearly is also guilty of murder. Yopu feared being shunned by the community if it got out that your daughter had slept with her boyfriend.'It was worth killing your daughter for. A woman cannot be so physically weak that she doesn't intervene in the murder of her own daughter and instead watches it for five minutes.'You lived in two cultural worlds. It is not the case that you may not be allowed to live in your own culture. But you must also deal with our values.'

He said they could have cut their daughter off from the family if they wanted to show their disapproval of her lifestyle, not murder her.

Rubbish, killing your own child because she had sex, who knows how many times you had sex before you repented or even before you got married. End time killings

Honor killing...hmmmm.

It's a common practice in the middle east and north Africa.
They believe she has brought shame to the family by having premarital sex or by dating who they didn't approve of.
This is barbaric for God sake

religion of no mercy!

An eye for an eye. They should have also been killed. Rubbish ideology....

I don't wanna get banned again by saying whats on my mind. Islam is a very funny religion.

Fools, giving Islam a bad name since 1900. This isn't what my Beloved Religion Islam taught us. Those parents must face the consequences in this life and the hereafter

Rest in peace to the dead but it's a real sin though

No be islam

very pathetic
