-- BBC: "Honour killing girl 'wanted love'"
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/london/8302958.stm
-- "A teenager allegedly murdered by her father in a so-called 'honour killing' hated her family and wanted to run away, a court has heard."
-- "Tulay Goren, 15, a Kurdish Turk from Woodford Green, north London, vanished in 1999 and her body has never been found, the Old Bailey has been told."
-- "Her boyfriend at the time, Halil Unal, 41, told the jury she said she wanted 'a man who will love me and marry me'"
-- "He recalled the time he met Tulay at Stratford bus station, in east London after she had been beaten."
-- "'I saw that she had bruising to her eye. She told me that her father tortured her and beat her and that her uncle Cuma was pressuring her.'"
-- "Jonathan Laidlaw QC, prosecuting, said Tulay was killed 'to restore the so-called honour' of the family, who originate from Turkey."
-- "The court heard Mr Unal was brought up as a Sunni Muslim while the Gorens were from the Alevi branch of the faith."
--- BBC: "He added: 'In our honour customs, they are either going to finish off, kill the girl, or they are going to kill both of them. That is definite.'"

--- BBC: "The prosecution says Tulay was killed 'to restore the so-called honour' of the family, as a relationship between she and Mr Unal - who are from different sects of Islam - 'would not have been tolerated'"

Women in Alevism
-- "According to Australian anthropologist Dr. Sevgi Kilic, while Alevi women do not experience gender segregation in the private and public domain they are subject to traditional male values about women's sexuality and constructed within the honour/shame paradigm"

Italy: 15 Year Old Muslim Girl Threatened in Italy for Loving Italian Boy
http://www.realcourage.org/2009/10/italy-15-year-old-muslim-girl-threatened-in-italy-for-loving-italian-boy/
-- Il Griornale: "I love an Italian, dad kills me" Moroccan 15 years under cover -- 15 year old Moroccan girl threatened
-- "Request for help is heartbreaking: "Help me, I do not want to end up like Hina and Sanaa. Said the police in tears of Pavia, just a few hours ago, a fifteen Moroccan escaped from home in Voghera."
-- "And the soldiers have moved immediately. Now the student is in a protected location in Sydney, away from parents by herself accused of having threatened to do the same end of Sanaa. Besides its history, for some months now, is similar to that of two girls, which took the lives of 'guilty' only of loving an Italian man and not a Muslim. A script already seen."
-- "Start the harassment. Her father beat her repeatedly and the threat of death: "I'll make an end to the other ..." alluding to the most horrific cases of poor Muslim girls massacred because they were trying to break free from a world of fundamentalist and dull. Beatings and threats that have witnessed without blinking, even sharing the "method of education, whether the mother. The girl tries to cling to what is around him, makes contact with friends including Social Services, as I will explain later also to the police. Anyone away from that family that now beats her and insulted almost every day. Phrase you hear is always angry, "Raki daimen Muslima u-maghribiyya (you are always Muslim and Moroccan). These are your sources, you must not forget, and that is why you can not attend the Italian boys who are not Muslims. Your father feels dishonored. And off blows."
