CWLRCP condemns the heinous crime that took the life of citizen (M.A.) at the hands of her nephew in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City last Friday, allegedly over so-called “family honor.” The Center demands the harshest punishment for the perpetrator and calls upon official authorities to prosecute anyone who contemplates and commits such crimes, bringing them to justice.

CWLRCP also calls for strict legal measures to stop all forms of violence against women, especially murder, to prevent criminals from escaping punishment under the pretext of preserving family honor. Foremost among these measures is the enforcement of the law, considering the murder of women as premeditated murder and rejecting any mitigating excuses that allow criminals to evade punishment.
