Necla Kelek on "honour killings"

In Germany, a federal court has ordered a retrial of the "honour killing" of Hatun Sürücü. In the first trial, the victim's underage brother was found guilty of the killing while her two older brothers were acquitted. Necla Kelek writes: "Never before has the difference between an archaic culture dominated by religion and a modern society been as obvious as it has become through this case. Everyone knew that the trial was not just about a murder: the three shots exposed the well-meant turning of a blind eye that resulted from opposing societal structures as a deadly form of tolerance. For too long such crimes were treated as family tragedies or the result of attacks of jealousy. Or the actions of the accused were explained away by saying that their different cultural backgrounds justified their crimes."
