Man Jailed for "Honor Killing" in Germany

A 19-year-old man of Turkish origin was sentenced Monday to nine years in prison for the "honor killing" of his married sister's boyfriend. The defendant, whose name was not released, admitted before the regional superior court in the southern German city of Stuttgart to stabbing his sister's lover to death in October 2004 to salvage his family's honor.

So is there really ANY question about whetether Turkish immigrants in Europe tend to keep their original ways?

I think this is completely and utterly unacceptable.
