Christian father charged with murdering daughter for dating Muslim
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleProsecutors file charges against a man accused of stabbing to death his teenage daughter after she revealed that she planned to join her Muslim partner and convert to Islam.
An indictment was filed at Lod District Court against Sami Kara, 59, over the slaying of Henriette Kara, 18, who was found with multiple stab wounds in an apartment in the central city of Ramle last month.
The court papers reveal the strained relationship Kara had with her parents — reportedly from a Christian Arab family — who strongly opposed her relationship with her partner, who was under arrest at the time of her death. Her partner was not named in Hebrew media reports nor were the circumstances of his arrest given.
