Harry Potter actress life threatened by family for dating outside the faith.
2010-12-22
One hint, the family are not members of the Methodist faith.
Lutherans?
Afshan Azad, the 22-year-old British actress who portrayed Padma Patil, a classmate of Harry Potter in the blockbuster Hollywood films, was reportedly beaten, called a 'whore' and threatened with death by members of her own family after dating a young, non-Muslim man.

According to the UK's Daily Mail, the young actress was assaulted and called a 'prostitute' after she met with a young Hindu man -- a potential relationship that apparently angered her father and brother. After her family members threatened to kill her, Azad reportedly fled the family's home through her bedroom window. The movie star is apparently so frightened of her brother and father, she has refused to confront them in court.
So what is the British 'justice' system doing about the assault and battery?

#1  Probably trying to arrange a "reconciliation", against the girl's will, leaving her unchaperoned with her family and their knife collection.
