Police: Arranged marriage led father to kill daughter |
2008-07-06 |
A Clayton County man faces murder charges in the strangling death of his 25-year-old daughter early Sunday over her desire to end an arranged marriage. Chaudhry Rashad, 54, apparently got mad during an argument in which the victim, Sandela Kanwal, told him she wanted out of the marriage, Clayton police officer Timothy Owens said. Authorities were called to their Utah Drive home in Jonesboro just after 3 a.m. Sunday. Kanwal lived with her father when she was not with her husband, who is in Chicago, Owens said. She hadn't seen the husband in three months, he said. Both Rashad and Kanwal are of Pakistani descent. Rashad had a seizure shortly after the strangling and was taken to a local hospital for treatment, Owens said. He was in custody Sunday at the Clayton County jail and could make an initial court appearance Monday. Owens said he was unaware if there had been any previous police calls to the home. |

#3 A good time to hang him in public, so that Muzz scum can see that this crap is not tolerated here. Don't drop this f**kup. Noose him, then winch him up 1/2 inch at a time, so he goes nice and slow like the daughter. Let all Muzz see what's going to happen to them if they perpetuate Muzz traditions here. |

#1 Sounds like an excellent opportunity to have an execution, cordially inviting prominent members of the Pakistani community to watch and report. |
