Submitted By:   Brohi
Committers:  18
Date Created:  2009-02-26
Description:   Honor killing is a deadly crime practiced in the name of tradition and culture around the world. For centuries this custom has snatched away the lives of innocent women just for the sake of restoration of so-called honor, but the question is.....is it? Or is it mere satisfaction of male dominated societies to stay powerful? Honor killing is a bitter reality around the world, it lives in many forms where burning, axing down, stoning, and burying are rampant in many countries. Honor killings in each form can't be accepted and needs to be abolished. WAKE UP!!! Campaign against honor killings is a movement of both men and women around the world to bring the change that is needed to end this crime!
