Mohammad Shafia: Teenage Daughters

Peter Kemp Dept: "My children did a lot of cruelty toward me," Mohammad Shafia testified during questioning by his lawyer, Peter Kemp, according to Montreal Gazette. "I was upset, I swore because I didn't expect this thing from my children," Shafia testified. "I was not happy about that." The Montreal man accused of killing three of his teenage daughters and his first wife believed two of his children had been "cruel" to him by dressing in revealing clothes and consorting secretly with boyfriends, he told jurors at his murder trial Thursday. Shafia said he was angry when he saw a photo of one of his daughters in a short skirt, hugging a boyfriend she had secretly dated. He saw it after her death, he insisted. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
