Honor Killing: Syrian Gang Rape Survivor Murdered in Germany

Rokstan

The horrifying story of an “honor killing” in Germany spotlights the sheer madness of importing millions of unvetted, unassimilated migrants.

The victim, a 20-year-old woman known as “Rokstan M,” is one refugee who had a strong case for asylum. She was gang-raped in Syria, emigrated to Germany two years ago, and found employment with the German government as a translator.

However, she strongly suspected her family wanted her dead for being “unclean,” and her suspicions appear to have been confirmed, as the German police believe her father and brothers slaughtered her with knives and buried her body in a garden, allegedly at the instruction of her mother.

So reports the UK Daily Mailwhich notes that shortly before her death, Rokstan wrote on her WhatsApp profile: “I am awaiting death. But I am too young to die.” She wrote that after living and working in Germany for two years.

The Daily Mail relates the testimony of a writer named Mark Kruger, who hired Rokstan as an interpreter to help him interview refugees. After working with him for a while, she felt comfortable enough to tell him about her experience in Syria.

“I was taken by three men,” she said, delivering her account via tape recording. “Ever since that time my family have regarded me as unclean. My mother and my brothers mistreat me. They say that I deserve to die.”

At the time of her death, she had just returned to live with her family, after spending time in what the Daily Mail describes as a “house for single women.” Her body was found in the “family’s allotment” in the German town of Dessau. The police cannot find her father and brothers to question them, believing the father fled Germany for either Turkey or Syria.

Her mother has denied involvement in her death, but Kruger was convinced she ordered the killing and says one of Rokstan’s friends told her Mom once tried to hire a hit man to take her out. As a recent study of honor killings pointed out, women “play a very active role in honor-based femicide, both by spreading the gossip underlying such murders and by acting as conspirator-accomplices and/or hands-on-killers in the honor killing of female relatives.”

As a local prosecutor put it, “There is the suspicion that the act was carried out by persons in her close circle with a culture motive in the background.”

The Germans are going to need a fresh shipment of euphemisms to handle the forces their political leaders have unleashed. Leaked government figures say Germany will absorb up to 1.5 million migrants in 2015, nearly twice the official estimate given to the public.  According to the German government’s secret figures, over 900,000 new arrivals are expected between October and December, arriving at the rate of 7,000 to 10,000 illegal border crossings per day.
