(Iraq) In Iraq, a story of rape, shame and ‘honor killing’
— “A young woman imprisoned in Tikrit, north of Baghdad, sent a letter to her brother last summer, appealing for help. The woman, named Dalal, wrote that she was pregnant after being raped by prison guards. The brother asked to visit her. Guards obliged. The brother walked into her cell,
drew a gun and shot his visibly pregnant sister dead.”
