The Mirror reports that Asadullah Khan, 51, and his wife Shazia, 41, originally from Pakistan are both on trial in Germany for the murder of 19-year-old Lareeb Khan.

Khan told a court that his daughter, a dental technician, had brought “dishonour” on his family.

He had already arranged a marriage for her when she began seeing a local boy.

The couple admitted strangling their daughter, and taking her in a wheelchair from their high-rise apartment to a forest where they rolled her body down an embankment.
