Listen "'Honour' made my father a murderer"
Episode Synopsis
At the age of 16 Amina was happy and in love with a local boy in Jordan. She dreamt of their wedding and future together. But then she discovered a secret about her sister, which brought 'shame' on her family and her father went to violent extremes to protect his family's so-called honour. Emily Webb hears this harrowing story through Amina's words and Norwegian journalist Lene Wold, who spent time with her to write a book called 'Inside an Honour Killing.' This episode was first broadcast in May 2019.Get in touch: [email protected]: Two women walking through an archway wearing hijabs
