Pakistani man, Mubeen Rajhu has admitted murdering his sister in an ‘honour killing’ because she married a Christian man.

According to DailyMail, Muheeb shot Tasleem in the head at home in August after he discovered his Muslim sister had defied the family and married a Christian.

He had been taunted by co-workers who had seen Tasleem in their neighborhood with the man.

While being held by police, Muheeb said he had demanded that his sister swear on the Quran that she would never marry the man.

He said: ‘I told her I would have no face to show at the mill, to show to my neighbors, so don’t do it. Don’t do it. But she wouldn’t listen.

‘I could not let it go. It was all I could think about. I had to kill her. There was no choice. There was no yelling, no shouting. I just shot her dead.’

However, Tasleem’s father Mohammed Naseer Rajhu puts the blame on his daughter.
He said, ‘My family is destroyed. Everything is destroyed only because of this shameful girl. Even after death I am destroyed because of her.’

The number of ‘honour killings’ in Pakistan has increased over the past few years.  According to the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan, 1,184 people were killed in 2015, compared to 869 in 2013.
