Too frequently happening

These murders of family members, almost all of them women, are unacceptable in our civilized society. Women should be protected from such barbaric customs and rules that allow them to be abused, tortured and murdered if they stray even slightly from the expectations or demands made of them. Unfortunately now they are happening with increasing frequency in western countries, and being tried in western courts due to the overwhelming immigration of non-integrating immigrants.
