The guy tried to do qudbasiro and marry her behind her families back. That is no different that an attack on their honor and demanded a retaliation. The poor mother raised her daughter to have a bright future, not marry some lowlife Madow who doesnt care his uncle was killed and still wants to marry into that family
Was this a forced secret marriage? Take two to tangle.
Never thought there was anything more backwards than honour killing but here we are doing honour killings of peoples family. Sad!
If I was him I would want to end it there, even the girl though the girl is innocent, I could never look at her or the rest of her fam the same. On the other hand, I couldn't give some people of her family the satisfaction of killing his uncle and then getting their precious ethnic Somali daughter back.
I feel sorry for the girl as well, if the marriage goes ugly I bet she wouldn't ask for divorce since she probably feels partly guilty and would stay with him forever.
This marriage is really weird and I don't know how they pretend no one died and no one is in jail, but I wish both of them the best in life
