Muslim brother killed sister for wearing make-up and mini-skirts

An attractive 16-year-old Muslim teenager was stabbed to death 23 times by her elder brother "to protect the family's honour" after he tricked her in to meeting him at a McDonald's burger bar car park.
Dark haired Morsal Obeidi was the daughter of an Afghan jet fighter pilot who fled the country after the Taleban came to power.
Together with his wife and five children the father settled in Hamburg, Germany in 1994 where Morsal grew up.
But although she had no problems adjusting to life in a European city her brother Ahmad (24) continually got in to trouble with police.
By the time he had tricked her in to meeting him, Ahmad had 30 convictions for assault and burglary. These also included a conviction for attacking a man with a knife after a drunken night out.
At his trial which started recently in a Hamburg Court Ahmad continually broke down in tears in front of the judge and jury where he is facing murder charges. If convicted he faces a sentence of life imprisonment.
The court was told dark-haired Morsal liked listening to Western music and wearing make up. She also wore mini-skirts and tight jeans and enjoyed going out to discos with pals she met at school.
But instead Ahmad wanted her to wear a veil and go to a mosque for daily prayers.
Although he enjoyed going out drinking with his mates Ahmad did not think it was suitable for his sister to do the same.
The so-called 'honour killing' was allegedly the tragic end to Ahmad's violence against his young and pretty sister.
