Pakistani woman killed in Italy over arranged marriage
5th October 2010
A Pakistani woman has died in Italy after her husband beat her with a brick for opposing the arranged marriage of her daughter, triggering a wave of outrage among Italian politicians on Monday.
The daughter, 20-year-old Nosheen Butt, was admitted to hospital with a cranial traumatism and a broken arm after her 19-year-old brother beat her with a stick in the courtyard of their building in Novi, near the north Italy city of Modena.
She said that the father had been in Italy less that 10 years and was the owner of the local mosque.
‘Less than ten years’ presumably means ‘more than nine years’. Not much assimilation going on here. Reminder for the dimwitted: There are no Italian Muslims, merely Muslims who happen to be living in Italy.

God grant the politicians long memories.
And another thing: owner of the local mosque? Private parties own mosques? Sounds like a great tax opportunity to me.
