For honor.

Wow. It's not just in Pakistan. It's a few streets over.*

A 40-year-old Midtown man was charged Wednesday with stabbing a neighbor to death over family honor.

Neama Hamza D Al-Mosawi was charged with first-degree murder in the death of David Dillin, who lived across the street from Al-Mosawi at 1378 Jefferson.

Al-Mosawi broke into Dillin’s apartment shortly after midnight Tuesday and stabbed him repeatedly, according to the charges.

He then also tried to break into another nearby apartment, but was chased off when the resident began firing shots at him.

Al-Mosawi turned himself in to police, and said he stabbed Dillin because he believed Dillin was having sex with his sister. Police found a bloody knife in Al-Mosawi’s pocket.

Yikes.

*If you click that link, it's going to take you, for whatever reason, to a lamentably unreadable archives page, even though the story (it was a brief) was published today. Commercialappeal.com was recently redesigned, and it looks a whole lot cleaner than the old design, but there are still some bugs, which is why, I think, when I searched for "Hamza honor," the story link it returned sent me to the archives. That the search even returned a working link is good enough for me, but as a bonus it asked me "Were you looking for hams honer?" I most certainly was not, because when you search for "hams honer," you get bupkis.
