Pregnant Pakistani woman stoned to death by her family

A pregnant Pakistani woman is stoned to death by her family in front of a high court for marrying the man she loved. Warning, this video contains disturbing images

 

The postmortem of a Pakistani woman killed for marrying the man she loved has established that she was five months pregnant, her stepson told Reuters on Wednesday.

Farzana Iqbal, 25, was stoned to death by her family outside one of Pakistan’s top courts in the city of Lahore on Tuesday in a so-called “honour” killing.

“Her baby died in her womb,” said Muhammad Aurangzeb, a son of her previous husband.

Honour killings are common in Pakistan [a Muslim state df], where women are often denied their basic rights. But the brutality of this case caused outrage around the world.

Many Pakistani families think it dishonourable for a woman to fall in love and choose her own husband.

Police said her father, two brothers and a former fiance were among the attackers. She suffered severe head injuries when they surrounded her and threw bricks at her, and was pronounced dead in hospital.
