It's not one world

Teenage Iraqi girl murdered by her own father in honour killing.

Her 'crime'? Having a school girl crush on a British soldier.

She was stamped on, suffocated and stabbed - leaving her with puncture wounds all over her body, including her face.

Her uncles are also said to have spat on her body because of the shame they felt she had brought on the family.

The fact her relationship with the British soldier she knew as Paul was entirely innocent was not enough to save her.
