Italy: 30-year sentences to Pakistani immigrant and sons-in-law for honor killing

BRESCIA, Italy, Nov. 13 (UPI) -- A Pakistani immigrant and his two sons-in-law were sentenced to 30 years in an Italian prison Tuesday for the so-called honor killing of his daughter.

Mohammed Saleem and his sons-in-law were tried under a fast-track process, the Italian news agency Ansa reported. The sentence was the longest possible after a fast-track trial.

Prosecutors said Hina Saleem, 20, was lured to her family's home in Sarezzo and killed because her relatives were upset that she was living with an Italian boyfriend, and refused to marry a Pakistani or to return home with her mother.

Giuseppi Tempini, who found her body buried in the garden of the house, cried as the judge read the sentences. He was awarded $29,300 compensation, which he said he will donate to charity.

Saleem's wife screamed at the judge.

During the trial, defense attorneys said Saleem killed his daughter in anger while they argued about money. They said the sons-in-law were not present.
