Pakistani Christian Loses Muslim Wife to "Honor Killing"


In the summer of 2017, a Christian man who I shall call "Nick" to protect his identity, lost his beloved wife to an honor killing.  "Nick" had married a young Muslim woman, and her family immediately took the couple to court, claiming that "Nick" had kidnapped her and forced her to marry him.  Every day, they couple had to go to court, then one day, his wife's family decided that they were tired of the bureaucratic delay and took matters into their own hands.  They caught the two of them and beat them both severely.  "Nick's" wife, who was pregnant at the time, had to go to the hospital.  The severe beatings caused her child to die in her womb.  Fifteen days later, she succumbed to her injuries and passed away.  Even with his wife gone, "Nick's" life is still in danger.  The court dismissed the kidnapping accusations, but his wife's family is still hunting him down, they are determined to kill him too.  "Nick" will never be able to return to his original home again.  Sadly, this is a common fate for many Muslim women in Pakistan who even fathom dating non-Muslim men or leaving their Islamic faith for another set of beliefs.
