BBC reports: “A court in the remote northern Pakistan region of Kohistan has sentenced a man to death for the murder of three brothers in a so-called honour killing. Five others were sentenced to life imprisonment. The killings took place early last year after a mobile phone video surfaced which showed a group of women and men dancing and chatting at a wedding. The men killed were brothers of the men in the video, and those convicted were relatives of the women. The women are also thought to have been killed. “
