9:22Now PlayingTiba al-Ali, a vivacious YouTuber, relocated from Iraq to Turkey and shared her experiences with a broad online audience. During a return visit to her hometown, Diwaniya in Iraq, she was tragically strangled in her sleep by her father, Tayyip Ali. Shockingly, he received a mere six-month prison sentence due to Iraq's lenient stance on "honor killings". Article 409 of the Iraqi Penal Code, for instance, permits reduced punishments for those who commit violent acts against family members if they had "honorable motives" or were provoked by perceived acts of dishonor. Dr. Leyla Hussein, a women's rights activist, commented on the deep-rooted misogyny in such actions, noting, "These killings are often rooted in misogyny and a desire to control women's bodies and behaviour." Tiba's heartbreaking story, combined with the controversy of Article 409, has catalyzed a wave of protests and demands for legal reform in Iraq, spotlighting the country's urgent need to ensure better protection for women.
