Arizona Republic: “Glendale dad accused in ‘honor killing’ on suicide watch
— “A Glendale father accused of slaying his daughter for being too ‘Westernized’ is under suicide watch in a Maricopa County jail, court officials said Thursday.”
— “Faleh Hassan Almaleki, 48, an immigrant from Iraq, is accused of running over his daughter, 20-year-old Noor Almaleki, and another woman in a Peoria parking lot on Oct. 20. His daughter died Nov. 2 of injuries sustained during the attack.”
— “Prosecutors say Almaleki was enraged over his daughter’s defiance of Iraqi and Muslim traditions. She reportedly had married a man in Iraq but returned to the United States and was living with her boyfriend and his mother, who was the second victim.”
— “Police said Almaleki fled the country after the attack, driving to Mexico and later taking a plane to London. He was detained by British authorities and extradited to Atlanta last week.”
— “Almaleki’s arraignment, which was scheduled for Thursday morning in Superior Court, has been delayed because of the apparent suicide threat.”
