Iran arrests man over ‘honor killing’ of 14-year-old daughter
According to local media, 14-year-old Romina Ashrafi was beheaded in her sleep.
The murder of a 14-year-old girl in Iran who ran off with an older man has renewed calls for the government to impose harsher punishments on so-called honor killings.
In mid-May, Romina Ashrafi fled the town of Talesh with her 34-year-old boyfriend, Bahamn Khavari. They were apprehended by police less than a week later.
