Australia: Muslim Wife-Killer Beats Murder Rap by Claiming She Provoked Him
“Mariam Yousif, who converted to Islam to marry her husband at 16, was stabbed 14 times in a ‘brutal and frenzied’ attack inside her Wiley Park unit in 2012. Her 54-year-old husband, Yassir Hassan, was found guilty of manslaughter instead of murder because he told the court he was provoked by his wife during an argument when she ‘questioned his manhood.'” Ms Yousif’s mother Hanan Zaki “said provocation was a ‘ridiculous’ defence for her daughter’s killer.” And it is. But it’s not the first time a Muslim wife-killer has resorted to this ridiculous defense.
