PEORIA, Ariz. — Authorities say a 20-year-old woman from Iraq whose father allegedly hit her with his car in a Phoenix suburb died from her injuries.
Noor Faleh Almaleki had been in a local hospital since Oct. 20. Peoria police spokesman Mike Tellef says she died Monday.
Family members say Faleh Hassan Almaleki believed his daughter had become too Westernized and was not living according to his traditional Iraqi values.
Faleh Almaleki fled after the attack but was arrested Thursday when he arrived at Atlanta's airport, where he was sent from the United Kingdom after authorities denied him entrance.
He was returned to Arizona last weekend. Tellef says the charges will be upgraded in light of his daughter's death.
What kind of man can kill his child? What a nice religion they have where they kill their children if they don't do as Daddy says. And then the coward ran. We need more of them in this country. Oh wait.....they are coming. I don't hear the rest of the community, the Muslim one, condemning this or any other that I hear in the news. She was 20 years old and he still felt he had to control her. If he or anyone doesn't like western ways, the get out and go back where they came from and don't let the door him them on the way out.
such nice customs
