"Tulay Goren was killed on 7 January 1999 after falling in love with Halil Unal, a fellow Turkish Kurd twice her age. The family disapproved because he is a Sunni Muslim while they are Alevis, from a different branch of Islam."
"Police believe her body was cut up and buried temporarily in the back garden of the family home. The remains have never been recovered.The family are originally from Elbistan, south-eastern Turkey, and adhered to the code of namus, or honour, practised by many rural communities there."
What a charming important into their new, host country.
The only positive thing to come out of this story is that her mother and sister found the courage to testify against their husband and father-and that poor Tulay can now be laid to rest in peace with a proper burial.
Barbarians.
