Garfar Kirimov of St. Petersburg told police he paid the gangsters almost $3,000 to shoot his daughter after she refused to wear traditional Muslim attire for women. The 46-year-old man had asked her to stop wearing make-up, tight tops and short skirts.
The 21-year-old girl was shot and killed by the hit men as she left her medical college, according to the Austrian Times. She is said to have told her father before the shooting, “Dad, we live in St. Petersburg, how could I wear those black clothes?”
It was only later that the guilt-ridden Kirimov admitted to police that he plotted to have his daughter murdered because of the modern way she dressed.
