Honour crimes - Panorama

[europa]

Monday 19th - a look at the culture surrounding 'honour' crimes -

Thousands of crimes in Britain are going unreported: beatings, imprisonment - even murder - committed by those closest to the victims, their families. These are crimes of so-called 'honour'.
With access to police investigations, Panorama reveals the shocking details of 'honour' killings, of women driven to suicide and also hears from those on the run, in fear of their lives.
The UK's lead prosecutor on 'honour' crimes says he will not tolerate multicultural sensitivities when it comes to this issue and a leading campaigner accuses her own community leaders of a failure of leadership in not speaking out against this abuse.

not tolerate multicultural sensitivities? sounds like it's going to be a hatchet job on muslims under the pretext of campaigning against honour crime...

Of course it will be, it's been the beeb's M.0 for years and we shouldn't expect anything less, still it should be worth watching just to see how prevalent such crime is within the Muslim community.
