Two shot dead for honour in Kohistan
2011-12-20
[Dawn] A couple was killed in an honor-related incident in Kohistan
...a backwoods district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa distinguished by being even more rustic than is the norm among the local Pashtuns....
on Saturday.

The incident happened in Shararkot area of Pales tehsil when one Mohammad Habib with the help of his accomplices first rubbed out Kamalud-den at his shop and later on killed his daughter at home.

The local people told news hounds that the FIR of the incident was yet to be lodged.

In a similar incident earlier this month Fazalur Rehman, who had recently returned from Soddy Arabia, first rubbed out his neighbour, Noorul Haq, in the nearby fields and later killed his wife at home in Dobair area.

The Kohistan is highly backward and conservative district where women are deprived of even basic human rights
...which often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless...
