Hana; On Tuesday, May 17, 2022, the body of a man identified as “Fakher Shirzad”, the son of “Shaukat” from the village of “Dostlan” in the “Margoor-Urmia” district, was discovered, who had been killed under the pretext of defending honor.
According to this report; He was shot in the head with a firearm and his picture will not be released because the images related to the murder contain disturbing scenes.
It should be noted that in May, 2022, including the murder of this citizen, 6 Kurdish citizens were killed in Kurdistan under the pretext of defending honor.
Due to the culture of patriarchy and the fact that the laws of Iran provide for the exemption of those who commit "honor killings" from severe punishment. For years, the people of this region have been victims of murders under the pretext of defending honor.
