Woman Stabbed To Death In Street For 'Refusing To Marry Her Cousin' by NaijaCover(m): 9:56pm On Aug 31, 2021
Update From . COM

A woman has been stabbed to death in a busy street in Baghdad after reportedly refusing to marry her cousin in an arranged marriage.

Nourzan Al-Shammari was brutally murdered in broad daylight while she was walking home from work, sparking anger across Iraq after footage of the crime was shared on social media.

According to media outlet Alsumaria News of Iraq, she was murdered by three people carrying knives in the so-called "honour killing" for refusing the marriage.

Police have since arrested Nourzan's brother for his suspected role in the murder, but it is understood his two cousins are still on the run, according to local news reports.

Spokesperson of the Ministry of Interior, Major General Saad Maan, said Nourzan's brother admitted to the killing, blaming "family problems" for the twisted crime, Gulf News reports.

It is understood this was not the first marriage she was subjected to. Nourzan was first married against her will as a child.

According to local reports, the young woman’s family forced her to marry for the first time when she was just 13.

After they divorced her first husband, her uncle, who has not been named, tried to make her marry his son, her cousin.

Nourzan, who worked in a pastry shop, is believed to have been repeatedly threatened because she did not consent to the marriage.

Her relatives claimed she had recently shared posts to her social media accounts, saying she did not feel safe.

The Iraqi Ministry of the Interior’s Relations and Information Director Major General Saad Maan released a statement confirming they had arrested multiple suspects, though they have not been named.

A "working team of experts and investigators" had been pulled together to find the perpetrators of the crime, Maan said.

Footage showing the murder was released by the Baghdad Anti-Crime Directorate.

She should have ran away. Women who face such problems are supposed to run away and cut off from such families. Just plan well and relocate and start life all over again. If she had left, she would definitely have found a better man and job. Beautiful girl wasted through such a painful death.

RIP

These guys are extremists. Marrying your cousin shouldn't even be a forced thing. Now, she's dead.

In a country like that running away is not easy. That country is a war torn country and moreover, such practice is common there and running away to start a new life will make things more complicated for her. She'd be smoked out within few days if she had ran away.

Also, even if she ran away she wouldn't have been able to even get married because according to her religion, she'd need to have witnesses from her side to be at her Nikkah.

That place is not like Nigeria that you can go into hiding for years due to many things.

I mean for her to run to another country all together and start life, and of course dump her religion. Of what use is religion to her if it causes her pain? Better to become a Christian or an atheist. It would have been better for her to become a fugitive in a strange land, look for a job , live as an orphan, change name, and abandon her wicked family she would have found a man who would love and accept her as an orphan. Of what use is a family that gives her out by force into marriage at 13yrs, the marriage failed , and they want to force her into another one. Some women do run to escape.

It is easier said than done.

Even Nigeria that is still saner than Iraq, people still find it difficult to get enough money to travel. Moreover, changing your identity is not something that you'd just decide to do. It's not easy EMOTIONALLY and PSYCHOLOGICALLY.
