Sourcing problems.........

[edit]

I've tried to expand this article but found it difficult to find good quality sourcing. The case was covered widely in Swedish media, such as Aftonbladet and Expressen, but they look really tabloidy to me, so I'm loath to use them. I've found a book about the case and a radio documentary, which I am sure would provide useful information, if only I could understand Swedish :) As I can't, I'm dropping them here in case anyone might find them useful.

Honor killing of Pela AtroshiMurder of Pela Atroshi – The use of the term "honor killing" can be seen as editorializing and non-neutral because it somewhat implies that the act of killing is motivated by a sense of righteousness or morality, rather than simply being an act of violence. The term might suggest that the killing is somehow acceptable or justified by the perpetrator's cultural or religious beliefs, which is a value judgement. It would be more appropriate to use terms such as "murder" or "killing" rather than "honour killing". Using the former terms helps to accurately convey the severity of the crime, and can also help to avoid perpetuating stereotypes and biases in several ways, mainly that certain cultural or religious beliefs can somehow justify or excuse murder or that a perpetrator's culture or religion is inherently violent. Atroshi's killers have been convicted of murder, and the crime is referred to as such in multiple sources. Mooonswimmer 19:23, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
