Turkey is actively working to put an end to this kind of thing, but it is a reminder of the lack of "grace" in the majority religion:
"A Turkish man dragged his teenage sister into the street and shot her in the head after learning that she was raped, Turkish press reported today.
Such incidents are not uncommon in the country, where killings under similar circumstances are considered “honour crimes”.
The girl, reported to be either 17 or 18 years old, was said to be alive but likely in a vegetative state, the daily newspaper Vatan reported.
Her mother was visited by members of Turkey’s Honour Killings Commission, which has been struggling to stop such murders, and explained what happened to reporters from the Vatan and Hurriyet newspapers."
