A woman in bradford, brought over from Pakistan for an arranged marriage was set on fire by her family, she was already dead when the fire brigade had got there. Although it may sound really shocking to us, it's actually quite a common occurrence in countries such as India and Pakistan. Unfaithful wives will often be set alight by their husband/family members.

How can anyone think it's acceptable to burn someone to death because they were unfaithful?

gutted for woman

is that not illegal to set people on fire or am i just imagining things?

the police line is upside down...
on topic its pretty disgusting, i kind of want to see it though as bad as that seems. Anyway theyll probably be put in our crap as hell prisons and learn nothing.

It's even more shocking knowing she was pregant :( Surely murder is worse than being unfaithful?

What the ****, i was in bradford yesterday and within 10 seconds of driving through i knew why it was called bradistan, they may bring their families over here but they can't bring their ancient law.

Sounds like a game of Sharades gone terribly wrong.

Sounds like they were 21 days too early if anyone gets that joke

Terrible and quite frankly disgraceful.

Welcome to Bradistan. Nothing new there, it's a backwards area and culture. I returned to the civilised world from there yesterday.
