Local resident: “Burning someone alive or throwing fat (to maim for life) is very ‘normal’ in an honor killing.”

I know Narges Achikzei only from passing by and the murder case.
I also stood there watching, by blue sails. Screams were mostly from her mother.
The perpetrator is not crazy. Watched the video footage again, but it is so rehearsed and 'cold'.
Burning someone alive or throwing fat (to maim for life) is very 'normal' in an honor killing.
I have been in contact with her former employer. I trust him very much and think it is very strong of him that, despite all the threats, he has told his story.
Why don't others believe him? Don't they understand his story?
This is also very painful for my trust in the police. Slack-jawed. Anyway, it is a hotbed there.
