- 12 years ago, a young mother of three, Zahra Abrahimzadeh, had her life taken away from her, by her own husband. The crime played out at a public venue in South Australia, in front of 300 people, including her own daughter. Her children said that they had warned police something horrific could happen. But nothing was done. In this powerful report, Zahra's children speak with Alex Cullen, as they prepare to witness their father be sentenced to life in prison. This story was broadcast on 26 August, 2012. Just days after that life sentence was handed down.

How could his brother say it should have been manslaughter? He brought a knife into a public place and committed premeditated murder. Period.
Cuz he’s probably just like his brother
@@mermaid30019 and probably even encouraged his brother to „re-establish family pride that had been sullied by that woman“. Wonder if the murderer was on the phone with his brother right before entering the center…
Sounds like the man and his family believes she shamed them by moving out/divorcing. They might have that mentality that when she married into the family, she belongs to them. They can mistreat her because she's now theirs.
Because they moved to Australia but did not move into a different mindset. Brought their regressive thinking along
Yep, his brother would have done the same. Shame on all of them.
If you threaten to kill the prime minister you will go to jail. Whats the difference if you threaten to kill your spouse. If its proven someone is threatening to kill someone they should get a mandatory 5-10 years jail. Threatening life should really be amended and looked at so this doesn't happen.
Amen. Police pretending not to know a threat when they hear one.
I hope his kids doesn't have anything with him? Or with his sides Families.
Those kinds of peoples r dangerous.
Where will all these people be housed, Prisons are already overcrowded. Will you give billions to build more Prisons?! Use logic! People threaten people everyday,mostly just emotions. Like most of you don't have the aptitude to handle a news story. Knowing, this situation is affecting your life none.
Well said.
"My mom was unconscious and my dad was still kicking her."
He hated his wife. If you don't love your spouse *walk away.* If your spouse abuses you *they don't love you.* Don't stay with someone who doesn't love you. Please...
He abused his children, too. It‘s all about control, not love. Some people just enjoy to have power over someone… the only reason for them to marry: to act out the controlling maniac!!
I am job
that's easier said than done.
@@honestival oh, I know first hand it isn't easy. I had to change my name and move 1500 miles away. I had to leave everything behind. But I didn't want to be murdered, and he was promising me that.
The Australian police need to understand "Honour Killing". You can not just dismiss the situation stating "He might have threatened to kill her or not".
This family has been terribly let down by outdated systems, their mother was cruelly murdered by the husband and the ridiculous laws in Australia.
The only thing that the Australian police understand is dishing out fines and arresting people. Anything above that is ignored. Rule 1 in Australia: You never call a police officer to help you if you are a victim of domestic violence. They flat out cannot and will not help you.
Police are not to be blamed. Immigration process is to be blamed. Asking police to deal with immigrant abusers is like paying human doctors to treat animals...dangerous most of the time.
@@hannahnpmungamuri8516 what about abuse from another Australian? Do your police help victims then?
Their is no honor in killing..it's an excuse for the men to beat the s@%t out their partner, if she don't comply... After all they are from that sh#&tty part of the world. They are the unwelcomed ones.
@@hannahnpmungamuri8516 like what now
That brother claiming it was not justice and it was manslaughter must be as awful as his brother. It's a misogynistic self entertainment to believe that a man has full control to harm his family is based on insecurities and ignorant culture traditions.
BRAVO. I am always in awe of the fact that if the wife abuser got into a fight with his neighbor, the Abuser would be charged with assault and battery. Abuse your Wife, well that's a Civil Matter. LOLOLOLOL SMH
Amen to that! 🙏 No-one has the right to take anyone's life or have control of their lives. Hurts my soul to hear things like this. Her poor children, my prayers of peace and strength go out to them.
Lesson: STAY AWAY FROM INSECURE LITTLE MEN.
The brother’s words were DISGUSTING…justifying that he was provoked to stab somebody, in public, like hunting an animal…
It's their upbringing.
@@chitrabhakta3820 Yes. Sounds like islam teaching's.
My dad killed my mom to. There's support groups for us but I don't go. You're not alone. Our mothers memories will stay alive forever. Never forget her!
Very sorry to hear. I hope your wound is healed.
I’m so sorry too! That’s terrible 😞
So blamed the Authority in Australia for not doing their jobs to protect the women's?
Imagine in Europe 🇪🇺 or England or America or in Canada 🇨🇦 it still happens?
@@arianayoung7537 She didn’t say anything about blaming the police in her comment and even if she did you’re still really out of line. Obviously I can’t tell you not to comment since that’s not how this platform works but you should really learn to read the room and at least try to have some empathy for people. Honestly shameful.
I am so very sorry for your loss Kayla. I can’t imagine how awful of a situation you’ve gone through and how painful it must be. My mom died from cancer so I really appreciate what you said about our mothers memories staying alive. I wish you all the best and a life full of love and happiness.
Domestic violence is never taken seriously enough
Truth
🎯🥺
Another example of the system failing women who flee abusive relationships. The way he sat in the chair after murdering the mother of his children is disturbing. Writing to his children and placing blame for her own murder is classic narcissistic behavior. May she rest in eternal peace.
And the brother claiming that it should have been manslaughter because a lot of provocation have been done to him... wow I am absolutely appalled for this family.... victim-blaming...
THE COMISSIONER MADE ME SICK WITH HIS COMMENTS. I'M SURE THEY WOULD'VE ACTED SO DIFFERENTLY IF IT WAS A MEMBER OF HIS OWN FAMILY OR FRIENDS, IT'S SHOCKING BEYOND WORDS.
SHAME ON THE AUSTRALIAN POLICE.
Agree 100%. Basically they don't give a toss.
@@joanne3049
HEY JOANNE,
IT MOST DEFINITELY SEEMS THAT WAY. . .
ENJOY THE REST OF YR DAY. ✌️🙂
Exactly 😢😢
Did you see how even the commissioner caught himself and realized how ridiculous the "law" was and did not know what to say except stuttering say"it's the law". Sad, but yes I'm sure he would feel different if it happened to close to home.
The law is open to interpretation. He's likely just trying not to get sued.
I dated an abuser, but I always fought back. He was a HUGE bodybuilder. Everyone was scared of him. But I always fought back, and I fought dirty. He finally stopped after broken teeth, a broken hand, and a broken leg - I broke his bones. His mother thanked me and said I'm the first one who ever fought back, and he told her he wasn't hitting women anymore. FIGHT BACK.
Your mum was a beautiful woman who was so brave in order to protect her children. I’m so sorry for your loss and I pray she rests in eternal peace 😢
In my entire career as an Attorney, I have never seen a piece of paper that protected an abused woman from a bullet or knife
Yet in the courtroom the victims are expected to have good lawyers to win the case against the abuser who WILL have a good lawyer since he will control the money, unlike the victim who will only have a court appointed 1st year lawyer. This is why the abuser wins with his attorneys. Do you take cases for abusers? bc if you do, you're part of the problem.
Omg so sad to hear that men are getting away with it
That's in their bloods ?
The children looked like 👍 their Mum
Aweee
Good 👍 job from the son 👏 👍
Stand up for your Mum and Sisters?
The absolute audacity of that bastard to call himself a victim is nauseating. What he saw as someone trying to destroy his life , was actually the fact that he felt like humiliation because his wife left him , he didn't care that she was afraid, didn't care to hurt her or his kids, no , he only cared about what other ppl would think. These men from that region of the world are always bent up about "Honor " , to the point that they'll literally kill wives , children and anyone else in order to satisfy their imaginary slights . The whole thing is ridiculous. Is there honor in throwing your life away and rotting in a prison cell ??? Like , yeah I killed my wife for dishonorable conduct, but now that I'm in prison, alone and all my children hate me. I've got honor out the wazoo. Its like cutting of your nose to spite your face. These cowardly little men have no clue what real honor is . RIP to the poor mother , and prayers for the children of hers. This was so cruel and pointless
May he's rott in Jail
He is from Afghanistan, they are like this , fanatisc
Very well put.
Thumbs up for that great comment! It's absolutely unacceptable. Ciao from Italy 🇮🇹
@@viverepensare thank you sugar ❤
Her son is so brave to speak up, even though he is in so much pain. So tragic for the children 😭😭😭 May this brave mother RIP ❤❤❤
ANY Threat Should be taken SERIOUSLY 😡😡😡
She had an order against him and he was still threatening her and that cop says it's the law not to intervene. Mind boggling and that cop should be ashamed
what is the order supposed to be used for if the police don't intervene? So upsetting
Exactly, why is it unlawful to prevent a murder?
@@hiseverest9074 Because it's a Family Law case. Police won't intervene. If it's Civil and the scenario happens, then they intervene. They won't intervene if victims or victim in the family gets abused. Been there with a few families before. Sometimes it's too late. It happens.
@@shanethemuzz5060 Huh? That's literally strange. What's the point?
I had a restraining order and my ex kept coming around my house looking in the windows. The police would do nothing. They said I had to get a picture of him violating order for proof. I was horrified.
His brother should go to jail just for suppoting this garbo
This is horrible. No one knows what goes on behind closed doors. Asking for help when someone is well known in the community many times goes on deaf ears. What a beautiful, strong woman and Mom. These adult children are so very strong. I hope from them speaking out ,it helped thousands of authorities to pay more attention. May this also make other people in abusive situations to run. The first hit Will Not be the last. Mental abuse gets worse too. My deepest condolences to her kids. She will always be around them in spirit. I am sure they feel her around still. So sad.
This is so heartbreaking . As for the father, he deserve ' sentence for life ' punishment .
This is just heartbreaking. The system failed them big time. Why is this so hard for authorities and people to understand, she knew how dangerous he was, and they just brushed it off.
Pip
It's not the system it's they're culture. What law would stop this? Should we arrest all Muslim men who've been shamed or disrespected by their family members?
the system is not very good at prevention because the laws are not efficient and also it may cost a lot of money ! it is difficult to put someone in jail until he did not break the law, if they go to jail it is not for long periods and when they are free they are more infuriated ! very sad !
@@heywtfisgoindownlol9879 feminicides happen in all cultures, it would be so simple to point the finger at one culture only ! exemple : Gaby Petito and his boyfriend/killer, not muslim ....
@@tarantellalarouge7632 So gruesome but so true too 😞
She is an absolute hero. She literally gave her life for her children's safety, my utmost respect to this beautiful woman. What a tragic loss of such a loving mother 💔❤️
She didn't "give" her life, with intent, she was avoidant, ambushed, her life taken from her. The kids were not at risk. You make no sense, it's so creepy how you say things that are untrue, in a need to get a positive reaction, I think? I wish folks like you would stick to facebook.
@@hensonlaura no! Don't push them sort to Facebook! Push them to TicT0k 😂 lefties
@@hensonlaura Understandable. She can't really protect them now
@@hensonlaura She's one of those libs of TikTok, lol
@@OscarRodriguez-fu6jv Yes, Libs of TikTok. 😂
What a wonderfull son and daughter, so calm, so beautiful. My heart breaks for them. May you have a positive life ahead, filled with strength, joy, love and good people. I wish I could have a chat with them.
Much love from the Netherlands.
SO SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS! LOVE & BLESSING TO YOU ALL!!!
What a gutless, pathetic excuse for a man. Abusing his wife is one thing but his children is beyond disgusting. That judge that changed the order should be reprimanded, what an idiodic thing to do
What do you mean abusing his wife is one thing as though it's okay?
No abusing your wife is as bad as abusing your children,wife isn't your punching bag,she's the mother of the children,besides that..... no man ever stops at just abusing his wife,this always extends to children too especially daughters
@@hannaansari2921 No, I'm not gonna sit back and let this narrative be pushed, someone hurting their spouse it horrible but someone hurting a child that's terrible people who put children and grown women on the same pedestal makes me mad, and the fact you said " especially daughters" like be foreal, most sons get beat and neglected by there's dad because " there men and there knowlong 5 so they should be able to take it" while they treat there daughter like little pretty flowers, especially in Hispanic house holds and black house holds white house holds and even Asian, now being sexual asulted yes that happens for more often to daughters but being physically abused , in my opinion both are very terrible and I feel bad for both parts however to put women on a child's level and to say especially daughters when referring to physical abuse as if it doesn't to happen to boys more is disgusting just , children or kids.
@@ChristDynasty
That hypothetical woman was once a child...a girl, a human being; just like her brother is, was, will. Wtf?
I guess you can't understand what you said from any views or low life morals.
Your argument breaks coherence laws even in therms or real logic or semantics. You're a walking fallacy.
@@ChristDynastyI agree. Men who abuse their spouses are absolutely abusing their children too, regardless of what sex they are. It may not be physical,but no one can say they were happy in a home watching a parent being abused even if the other one never lays a hand on them. It's emotional terrorism, and the main reason I waited six years to get married. We've been together a decade, and he's never once laid a hand on me. I have a happy home for the most part, and that's after it took me almost four years to leave my abuser. I now own a gun(several) if he ever feels like revenge for me leaving is a dish best served cold, and a cast iron skillet 😂. Don't mean to make light of it, but it's how I deal, and my abuser will never lay a hand on me or my daughter ever again.
This is how the monsters see it; as provocations, such a self importance. He is a self entitled criminal. So is his brother. I feel sorry for her children, so hurt they are.
He's a narcissist
I would write to the prison asking that they stop his letters to me from getting mailed.
Men can be so utterly selfish and possessive. They somehow think women and children belong to them to dispose as they wish. It's so lacking in humanity and reason. It's INSANE
@@Z8terfix WOMEN CAN BE THAT WAY ALSO. I think it's just more common with men. But remember the
Mother of three beautiful children who
shot all three at point blank range in cold blood just because she thought they stood in her way of getting the man she was obsessed with? That's the same thing. In her twisted sick mind she thought if she got rid of her kids "for him" forever he would be glad to have her.
The brother must be investigated
So sickening. Hard to fathom that level of evil is out there in everyday people. Condolences for the family and I hope they find peace.
This is why I told my husband when we started dating. I told him if you ever put your hands on me like I have seen my mom being abused back in the sixties because men had the say so back then they stuck together even the legal system . I seen my mom thrown down stairs, beat in the face so bad her eyes were swollen and the whites were blood red and bruise after bruises I would be the one being the oldest of 3 that would run out the back door or climbing out of a window at 4 years old running to a woman my mom trusted to ask her to please call the police he's killing mom. Children remember and I meant it when I said to my husband don't ever think you are man enough to put your hands on me because I swear you will go down. I am not gonna play
The breakdown here is that the Australian system didn’t understand Iranian/ Afghan culture. If they had, the threats on this woman would have been taken more seriously.
The Australian system doesn't understand their own culture and people, let alone anyone else's. The system is there purely to make money. Nothing to do with protecting the innocent sadly.
Very true.
Thank you!! Finally someone recognizes that. I had a friend in a similar predicament years back when she lived in Saudi Arabia. It was bad, she was terrified. She was able to get away from her husband with her children, but had to move to a different continent to feel ‘somewhat safe.’ I feel so bad Zahra didn’t have that opportunity.
My mum, myself/my siblings suffered this also at the hands of our father. He was ... "A STREET ANGEL, HOUSE DEVIL" Everyone outside our home loved & respected him yet nobody knew just how truly evil he was!
CaRob Mc. Im so sorry to read this. The worse kind - Street Angel, House devil ... very well put. I hope you were all able to get away?
I hope you guys are doing better now
This was, (and still is), my mom. She was a personable, educated, well-mannered fashion plate to those who didn't live under her roof. I've been recently thinking about the mental, emotional, and physical abuse I suffered as a child. Could my friends tell? Could the teachers tell? My mom worked for the school and was doted on by the nuns who taught us. I was an unaware anorexic starting around age 7 (I still suffer with the disorder at times). I suffered from debilitating panic attacks where I'd hide in the school's bathroom. No one offered to help me. No one even acknowledged the odd behavior till I had a psych break at age 11. Sometimes I'm impressed with what my mind, heart, and soul dealt with but continued to endure and even thrive a little bit. I'm 42, I have no children, never been married, and have trouble making and maintaining friendships. I'm almost 3 yrs sober and doing well. My mom is 81 and I see her almost everyday to take out her trash and listen to her trash me. C'est la vie. (Damn, I needed to vent)
@@caitlinthompson7540 I’m sorry you went through this. I am glad you have described yourself as even thriving a little. 🌱
Same for my house growing up. And ended up being the same in my marriage.. The difference is I left shortly after he really became abusive. My mother is still married to the man who abused her, me & my siblings.. our entire childhood... I escaped.. so I thought... by moving in with my EXHUSBAND (boyfriend at the time) & married him at 20.. We moved out of state 5 months after we married.. Once, I was moved away.. the controlling insecure notch was turnt up to high, Dr Jeckle & Mr Hyde.. The ULTIMATE NARCISSISTS WAS REVEALED TO ME.. ALTHOUGH AT THE TIME I HAD NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THE WORD "NARCISSISTS".. I WOULDN'T BE TIL 20 YRS LATER THAT I WOULD LEARN WITH A NARCISSISTS IS.. HE RUINED MY ENTIRE LIFE..
I GREW UP IN AN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE HOUSEHOLD AND I ATTRACTED AN ABUSER.. TRAUMA BONDING IS REAL...
WOMEN NEED TO KNOW ITS NOT OUR JOB TO EMOTIONALLY SAVE, & HEAL THE WOUNDS OF BROKEN PEOPLE THAT WE DIDN'T CAUSE.. YES, WE CAN STAND BY THEIR SIDES AND BE WITH THEM THRU THEIR HEALING, LOVE THEM.. WITH ABUSERS THO.. THEIR HAS TO BE CONDITIONS.... ONCE THEY TURN ON US.. GET UP OUT OF THERE..
I'M 49, MY SISTER IS 50, HER BROTHER IS 48 AND WE ALL HAVE DEEP WOUND AND RESIDUAL (DEEP) DAMAGE THAT HAS EFFECTED OUR LIVES IN MANY WAYS..
STAYING FOR THE KIDS IS CHOOSING FOR YOU KIDS TO BE ABUSED.. WHAT MOTHERS GO THRU THEIR CHILDREN GO THRU. PERIOD.
Never give a man a second chance when he puts his hands on you never even verbal abuse run and don't ever look back he is not worth he's just plane evil coward
I always tell people to get out of an abusive relationship before a kid comes into the picture. using the kid as an excuse to stay in the relationship is bad. all the kid will learn is violence.
He felt like a victim. OMG I can't even imagine what the children felt when receiving that letter. Horrible.
horrible
Start treating threats seriously and CHANGE THE LAWS!!!!!!!!! Stop making excuses! Why is a Psychopath treated like they have more value than a good woman and mother? His brother, who thinks it was manslaughter, is as evil as he is.
I'm so sorry for her children and her extended family.
I hope that it's a true life sentence and that he NEVER gets out of prison.
Her sons Grief is heartbreaking..what a despicable Father
The audacity of the brother staying "he was provoked and charges should be manslaughter". Ego and despotism. My condolences to the beautiful children she had raised and sacrificed her life for.
At what level is so called provocation not a provocation but a desperate attempt to flee? These men have a wrapped sense of reality! They use the word provocation flippantly and without understanding. It's like saying if you abandon a fight you provoke ur opponent? It's so ridiculous it's unreal.
@@Z8terfix Escaping from the violent husband after decades of assaults
was 'provocation', according to his brother. Fkn ridiculous.
@@pugs425 I know. They are sick minds with distorted reality 🥴
Sorry to hear about ur abuse! These knuckleheads here will never comprehend it..
@@Z8terfix HI. I'm not abused.
@@pugs425 Soz. I thought u were talking about urself. My bad
At the beginning the look and reaction of being asked about his mom is so heartbreaking... Beautiful loss he has indeed, so sorry for what they had to go through with that sad sad waste of a man. But at least you can tell that woman raised some decent soft spoken children.... My empathy to you... Happy mother's day to your family I hope you celebrate her life not mourn her death. ✨
Prayers to ANYONE in danger/being abused
What a sorry excuse for a living being.
And no, he is not a man, just someone that should never have been born.
PS: The statements by the police are beyond pathetic; if someone threatens to kill you, take it serious, or will it only be taken seriously after you are dead as with Zara.
What an unbelievable coward. True justice would be to dish out what he tortured that beautiful woman with. I'm so angry so I can't imagine how her family feels.
This is such a horrific tragedy that NEVER should have happened!!!😡…the horror pain and suffering this beautiful woman and her children were forced to endured is absolutely heartbreaking!!!😢…my prayers and condolences to her family and her children!!!!🙏🙏🙏😔…SHAME on ALL that ignored SO MANY bright red flags and complaints!!!🤬🤬🤬
You can see the heartbreak in her sons eyes. Sad.
Unfortunately he would have killed her even if he wasn't allowed in there. He would have done it somewhere else. This is terribly sad 😔
Yep, he would had for sure. The only way she could’ve been able to get away from him is to move without a trace to another country. He was set out to murder her one way or another
His ego was bruised so he took revenge. Poor excuse for a male in my opinion. Our so called laws when it comes to protecting women from domestic violence needs to desperately change. Why should Zahra have to go into hiding in order to feel safe? How many warnings does it take in order for action to be taken? Clearly death! My heart goes out to the children
In your opinion? There's no opinion about it.
My heart and prayers go out to this family.
That brave mother was 100% let down by authority ❤❤❤
Oh please , the police knew this was a treat to his wife and possibly her children l. They failed this women and her children. This cop turns my stomach. I feel so bad for the children and family.
Treat!?
Women !?
He should never be released from jail
Let him rot there.
SIP So sad
RIP 🙏
As a child survivor of Domestic abuse of a mother who did not walk away, I want everyone to know that staying with an angry, abusive, intimidating, violent husband is NEVER the BEST for the children. I’m so sick of this hero shit narrative around women who cannot leave an abusive relationship where innocent bloody children are scarred for life from their inability to walk away from a deadshit. I’m 60 years old and the stain this has left in the life of myself and 5 other humans, who were innocent and unable to get away, is always there and has poisoned our lives.
If you cannot walk away from a dangerous man then get your kids away. Give them to a loving, healthy and safe family until you can get your head right.
It takes more courage to walk away then to stay. I’m the hero who picked up my children, pregnant with the third and fled a foreign country with them with one suitcase to get them away from an angry psycho control freak.
I’m so happy that u didn’t repeat the cycle. I unfortunately have had similar experiences in my past so please don’t think I’m defending ur mother but u did mention u were 60 so I imagine u were raised in the 1960s women had a lot less options back then unfortunately…..I’m so sorry u still carry that weight but maybe it’s time to let it go and forgive ur mother for urself. If u can’t do that then please maybe u can see that she didn’t know it would harm u all so much or else I’m sure she would have left. I hope u find peace with this.
As a child & an adult who's still suffering as a result of the domestic violence between them which has made its way to me in a profound negative way in adulthood, I know too well what you mean. Feared abused, neglected & oppressed mothers raise children worse than them in every which way possible unfortunately. By staying not only they put themselves in jeopardy but more so the very children they claim to love, care & protect with their lives 😔 its got nothing to do with religion, gender, culture, age etc but the mindset, personal ideologies & choices parents make when they are raising their children coupled with genetics.
@@myjourneytotruth absolutely agree. There is a psychological mental health disorder in these women who logically can see and know the danger but can’t leave.
Agree with you that in the 60s there were not many options available to married women who wanted a separation. Additionally, the general public did not know as much about domestic violence as they know now-neither did people talk about it.
You are 100% correct, but where your mums circumstances the same as yours? Like did she speak the language in the country she was in? Was she educated enough to get up and leave? These are all factors that force women to unfortunately stay and carry on enduring abuse. I used to moan about other things about my mum, but now that I'm older I think, with some things, she just didn't know any better. She wasn't educated she was forced to do house work as a kid, she got married off at 20 and sent to UK where she didn't speak the language and the list goes on. So I get you might be angry because of what you went through, but mum's are only human too.
This is horrible. There's no protection for women or men from domestic violence. The justice system needs to change drastically. My mom is an abusive marriage herself. She won't let coz she knows nothing else and he won't die coz he's in good health. Me and my brother live at home so we are there to protect her at every corner. More needs to be done for victims. It's sickening really
I'm in tears... no words!
So many times we hear the police ignored warnings or social services.About time this was taken seriously.
🤔🤔🤔
I am so tired of abusers getting away with threatening with no repercussions. Threats on someone's life have Got to be taken seriously. Truly terrifying experience. Domestic violence has got to stop. Stop blaming the victim. There is zero excuse for hurting another life.
It’s more than him being an ‘abuser’, some cultures condone the killing of your wife if she dishonors you.
It’s horrible, but true.
Absolutely Heartbreaking. Laws concerning these horrific crimes need to be revisited, upheld and enforced EVERYWHERE.
So very sad. Prayers for these children, and there family.
The son is such a great guy…so protective and loving towards his mother and sisters. The son could also have turned out to be like his dad but he chose not to and instead was a caring brother and son.
Reddy Kanta. Yes it's incredible that the son has turned out so caring, protective, a lovely man, so the opposite from his maniac father.
I think a lot of young middle eastern men including myself, worked hard to make sure we don't continue this cycle of violence towards people or our spouses, as it is a big problem in middle eastern culture abuse within the family, he has grown up in a place where we are taught to respect and value people and life and that our differences can be resolved.
Doesn't matter how good looking they r? I don't want anything to do with them?
@@arianayoung7537 Excuse me? Whose talking about looks? We are talking about the son’s protective and caring personality and not about how good looking they are. So what if you don’t care or don’t wanna know about them .The majority of the people in this world does care because we have empathy and kindness in our hearts for them.
@@fransmaroki I’m so glad that the younger generation of today are making a change when it comes to the protection and safety of women and children. Brother hats off to you.
We should always treat the women in our lives with love and respect. They are the ones that bear children ,nurture children .and care for the family. Without them there would be no existence in this world. A loving mom is the greatest gift to a child and family.
This is utterly terrifying. My condolences to the children.
What an incredibly stupid question they asked..”did the system fail her “? When will law makers get their act together to stop these vicious monsters from terrorizing innocent people?
Abuses his family... Gets angry that the family wants nothing to do with him👀
Ugh
They dad was heartless and cold As if she was his property and she disrespected him by leaving like she was supposed to continue to be a victim This is heartbreaking
His brother said it should be manslaughter, does he even know the difference between manslaughter and murder? It is obvious this was a premeditated calculated act, the whole reason he brought the knife. He was simmering and waiting for the chance to kill her and that's exactly what he did. I understand wanting to defend your family, but she was also your family, the mother of your nephew and niece's. His brother is almost as cowardly as the father. I hate to think how he treats his wife and kids. That behavior is usually a learned thing. Makes me sick to think about. I hope this monster never sees the light of day. Thankfully he didn't have access to a gun, no telling how many lives he would have taken that day with his blind rage.
I'll be your Stumbleine:
The brother is just as cowardly as the father
The brother is like the husband. He brought up how he thought the wife had done stuff to his brother so it should be manslaughter. These people have demons in their ears from birth. Completely brainwashed since children. The belief that its ok to such things is deeply rooted and ingrained in their belief systems. The parents of these men have a lot of explaining to do and i hope those kids have nothing to do with their fathers family ever again.
My heart goes out to these children having to see all the abuse and to have their mother taken from them.
My step father tortured me for 10 years my mother says it's false memories lol there's so many horrible people in the world.
I feel so sad for the children and their mother. This kind of thing should not happen in Australia.
So heartbreaking.
Some judges need to step down as they clearly show that they are so incompetent and cannot do there job and continue to put women and children in harms way. They just don’t care.
TRUE 💯 NOT ANYWHERE
It shouldn't happen anywhere. But the controlling and bullying of women goes on all over the world, even in the name of religion and culture. Obscene.
I remember when this happened. It’s shameful how she was let down by the whole system.
I don't know if family members ever watch these shows on YT and read comments, but to Zahra's children, your mom was beautiful inside and out. I hope you have felt her comforting love come over you at times since your terrible loss. My heartfelt condolences to you. 🙏❤🙏
Imagine the audacity of that man, writing a letter to his kids justifying killing their mother!? He obviously does not know the meaning of the word victim, else he would not be abusing it by referring to himself as such. Now that he has "restored" his honor by killing his poor wife, may he rot in prison all the days of his life with his honor to keep him warm🤢
The system fails way too many people. My heart goes out to her family.
The system is absolutely fucked!
Agreed. The system is there only to make ppl fight with each other so the courts will be full and ppl will be broke from paying lawyer's fees. No money to be made from protecting victims. That's why the law will never change.
I am so sorry for this beautiful family. I cried for what had happened and felt your mother's presence, she loves you all. May God's love be with you all also, until you all see your beautiful mother again.
It's never serious until someone dies 😪
Restraining orders are fairly useless. I live in Ohio and helped a group of strong fighting women present a bill so that any person with a restraining order against them has to wear a tracking device/ like a gps monitor/ankle bracelet that they have to pay for, so that if they violate it by coming close to contact, the authorities are notified, and they are found and arrested. This was in honor of a woman who was murdered by her ex husband and her daughter nearly got away. He also murdered their horse. These MONSTERS must be held accountable BEFORE they murder any more women. My heart goes out to this family. May your next lifetime be much kinder. May your hearts heal. Bless you.
This is heartbreaking. This guy committed vindictive premeditated murder after his wife took HER power back...and the children ended up suffering the most.
Absolutely horrible for those kids... my heart goes out to them, just tragic ☹
My heart goes out to these incredibly strong siblings. They will forever endure this horrific trauma & they will be times where they will have their strong days & their weak days everyday is different there is no other way around this . As for the coward he will never accept responsibility for his evil actions & blame the innocent victims .God bless
Every time a mother is killed society breaks down more and more.. God bless her soul and her children 🙏
❣️🙏❣️🙏❣️🙏♥️❣️
How dare this sorry excuse for a human being dare say that he is the victim??!! I really hope that his fellow prisoners show him what a victim really is!
if someone made verbal treats to their queen all hell would break loose.
This killer's brother is just as sick as he is.
Its disgusting that police are saying for them it was not serious enough to act to protect her. Also at the end they state the law can't protect you if someone is hell bent to kill. A decent system should apprehend people that are likely to commit such crimes even when they only wisper a threat. Isn't too late to act after the fact which is always the case. How many women need to butchered for the law to learn?
OMG, why is it the system can't see when someone's life is in danger after everything the police and courts are told. The judge and officers should have charges brought up against them for not doing anything to help this woman and her children. He was a lawyer so that's probably why they didn't believe her. These poor kids lost their mom, but at least their free of their tyrant of a dad. I hope these kids can try and lead as normal as a life as possible. He should have gotten the death penalty
This is heartbreaking 💔
Man....my memories are full of screams and yelling and someone either grabbing me and taking me or guiding me to a hiding space because all hell will break loose
The son has me in tears.
This could have been prevented. The judge should be in jail too.
Amazingly strong kids. My heart goes out to you three.
This breaks me:( Lord have mercy on this family. Please ease their sorrow and surround them with Love. 🙏 Amen.
Of course the abuser tries to blame it all on the real victim and he tries to make out that he is the victim.
To anyone here watching this and knowing they are in an abusive relationship please find your local resources and use them.
There are domestic violence services like shelter, counseling, childcare, clothing and more.
Shelters are usually houses that are safe houses that people don't know the location of. So you have to reach out to a local domestic violence organization to get into a shelter.
Sometimes you will be bussed to a different city.
Please remember everything you have pretty much can be replaced. Don't take make up, clothes etc etc. Take a journal of you have it, a phone if you can, your personal art but none of that is as important as you getting out.
It doesn't matter how old you are, what you look like or who you are, you deserve peace and do not need to stay in this toxic place.
This person will not change and they do not deserve any more chances. Get out and get out now.
Take your children and go to a domestic violence place. They will call the police, get you to a medical professional, help you with shelter, show you how to fill out legal papers.
Yes it's scary, you'll feel all alone. But that's what makes you brave, you have the courage to do this.
Don't think about the immediate life changes as much as start envisioning your peaceful radiant future after this whole mess gets fixed.
No one can make you do this. You have to do this for yourself. Now go. You are your strongest advocate for you and your children.
May you be blessed.
You must not be Australian bc there are no such resources here like that. There are only services PRETENDING to give this help, but they do not actually help you.
@@joanne3049 where are you in Australia?
Let me see what I can do.
Again a system failure. My heart goes out to the children and their beautiful mother.
My heart breaks for the kids and thier mum 💔
This is a horrific story that should have never happened ,the system failed her. She did everything right, sought out help and support but she still lost her life. I am grateful that she has strong children and her son isn't going to be a man who is abusive like his father. The son is there for his sisters and will be a fathet roll for them. He is young but has a very strong, loving caring personality.
My heart goes out to this family for their pain and suffering from the father and loss of their loving mother. ❤
His brother is just as despicable
Heartbreaking for these children going through all this. And the justice system terrible 😢
HEARTBREAKING 😞....
I am an Iranian mother, have children your age, I am heartbroken for you all, so sorry for your loss. She is a proud soul in heaven watching over you all. Take great care of each other.
This is absolutely awful and the system did fail her and her children. The laws in Australia need to change and in a big way. Praying for the children. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
The laws will only change when they figure out how to make money out of domestic violence protection for the victims. And I won't be holding my breath on that one.
It's not just Australia. Same here in the U.S.
So sorry for her children they suffer the most !
Praying for this family 🙏
So sad , praying for healing and better future for the family. She is always with you.
