"Honor killings have steadily risen across the continent during the last 10 years, according to Europol, as countries absorb Muslim immigrants but fail to adequately assimilate them. Many of these immigrants come from Turkey -- not from the secular mainstream but from remote villages where a more stringent form of Islam is observed. Police authorities from across the European Union met recently to discuss the troubling trend, as Denmark became the first country to stiffen the penalty for these murders. It was hailed as a landmark decision because for the first time in a European court, several family members were tried for an honor killing, not just the triggerman."
