Folkpartiets lögner!

Folkpartiet skriver följande i sitt manifest Att bemöta fördomar:

Hedersmord är lika förbjudet i muslimska länder som i Sverige.

Låt oss då kolla upp sanningshalten i detta påstående...

I Pakistan:

Police almost invariably take the man's side in honour killings or domestic murders, and rarely prosecute the killers. Even when the men are convicted, the judiciary ensures that they usually receive a light sentence, reinforcing the view that men can kill their female relatives with virtual impunity.[...]The Government of Pakistan has taken no measures to end honour killings and to hold perpetrators to account.

I Jordanien:

...Article 340 of the Penal Code, which provides for lenient sentences when men kill their female relatives in the name of "honor." Parliamentarians justified their defense of honor killings as protection of Jordan's traditional and moral values against western influences.

Article 340 of the Jordanian Penal Code provides for exemption from penalty if a man kills his wife or female relative after finding her "committing adultery with another." It provides for a reduction in penalty if a man kills his wife or female relative after finding her "with another in an unlawful bed." Also of concern is the way in which other articles of the Penal Code, which provide for a reduction in penalty for cases where there has been "provocation," have been used to reduce sentences in many cases of so-called "honor crimes."

On average in Jordan, a man who murders women in his family for an "honor killing" spends NO time in jail to only on average three months to a year in jail.

[...]

Article 340 of the Jordanian Penal Code stipulates: "He who discovers his wife or one of his female relatives committing adultery (with a man) and kills, wounds or injures one or both of them, is exempt from any penalty." Another clause states: "He who discovers his wife or one of his female relatives with another in an adulterous situation, and kills, wounds or injures one or both of them benefits from a reduction in penalty."

The BBC reported yesterday that women activists in Jordan are outraged over yet another light sentence for a man convicted of an honor killing. In this case, a man murdered his daughter with "an implement similar to a meat cleaver" after he learned she had premarital sex. For this crime, the man was sentenced to only six months in jail.

Although the Jordanian government has claimed over the past few years that it wants to crack down on honor killings, so far it has been all talk.

Last July, for example, CBS reported on the case of Sirhan Abdullah. Abdullah's 16-year-old sister, Yasmine, was raped. Yasmine feared for her life and so turned to police who placed her in protective custody. After forcing him to sign an agreement that he would not harm Yasmine, she was released to her father.

By his own account, Sirhan Abdullah waited only about 15 minutes after Yasmine arrived home before shooting her in the head four times. He spent six months in jail. Abdullah told CBS that he didn't think his sentence was fair. According to Abdullah,

I shouldn't have been in prison for a minute. If she had stayed alive, everyone in our family would have hung his head in shame.

A bill to set mandatory jail terms for honor killings was defeated by Jordan's parliament in 2000, and a new proposed bill that would require at least a 5-year sentence for such murders has almost no chance of being enacted into law.

I Irak:

Articles 130 and 132 of the present-day Iraqi Penal Code [...] still state that the penalty for killing a woman should be reduced if the crime was committed for reasons of honour.

I Egypten:

The law in Egypt protects from prosecution men who kill their wives for engaging in extramarital affairs.
