A father who ordered his daughter's brutal death for "falling in love with the wrong man" in a so-called honor killing was found guilty of murder on Monday, YnetNews reported. Banaz Mahmod, 20, was strangled with a boot lace, stuffed into a suitcase and buried in a backyard garden. Mahmod Mahmod, 52, and his brother Ari Mahmod, 51, planned the killing during a family meeting, prosecutors told the court. Sentencing is expected this month.
