Posted • December 29, 2024: Mother arrested trying to flee to Canada after she & her husband allegedly tried performing an "honor killing" on their daughter for refusing to be shipped to Iraq for an arranged marriage. Zahraa Subhi Mohsin Ali was charged with attempted murder, kidnapping, & assault. The 17 year old daughter ran away from home after her parents tried shipping her to Iraq. When they found her at Timberline High School in Washington, the father, Ihsan Ali, was seen beating his daughter while classmates tried to save her. The girl's 16-year-old boyfriend eventually was able to free her as the father tried choking her out. The father was immediately arrested and the mother was later caught while trying to flee to Canada.

"Her father had recently been threatening her with honor killing for refusing an arranged marriage with an older man in another country," police said. According to the father of the boyfriend, Victor Barnes, who recently spoke to the Daily Mail, the mother tried fleeing to Canada after she heard prosecutors say they believed she was also a threat to her daughter. "They wanted to seclude her and during this period of time, that's when he was threatening to kill her and was starving her and crazy, crazy stuff," Barnes said.
