A father has admitted to killing his teenage daughter with a shotgun in a suspected honour killing but claimed it was an accident and he only meant 'to scare her'.
Mohammad Kazem Lashkari, 43, reportedly flew into a rage when he saw his daughter Ariana Lashkari, 15, in a park in Iran with a man.
After he was arrested Mohammad claimed he only wanted to scare his daughter with the shotgun when it accidentally fired, killing her in Nurabad, southern Iran, on June 27.
He told police: 'After an argument, Ariana went to my mother's house and I could not control my anger.
'I went there with my shotgun to scare her. I really did not mean to kill my daughter. I fired involuntarily.'
