WHAT?!! 2 PAKISTANI SISTERS AND THEIR MOTHER SHOT DEAD FOR DANCING IN THE RAIN

I don't know if you find this as disturbing and unbelievable as I do. My heart bleeds and I have tears in my eyes as I type this. We don't know how grateful we are to live in a liberal country where we are free to express ourselves. Two sisters, 15 and 16 were killed in Pakistan for making a video which showed them dancing in the rain. In the video, the girls are seen running around in traditional dress with two other younger children outside their bungalow in the town of Chilas, dancing while one even flashes a smile at the camera.

When the video was circulated through mobile phones, it caused an outrage and the sisters, named as Noor Basra and Noor Sheza, were accused of tarnishing their family's name. Last Sunday the girls were shot alongside their mother in their home by five gunmen.

According to Sunday Times, Police are investigating whether the attack was arranged by the girls' step-brother, named as Khutore, who allegedly wanted to 'restore the family's honour.' Another of the sisters' brother has filed a case against Khutore and the four other alleged accomplices who are now believed to be on the run. 

I close my eyes and picture myself dancing and playing in the rain, and get killed for it? The thought of it makes me cringe. RIP ladies, you're hopefully in a better place.
