Seven-month-pregnant woman, 20, is murdered in Sweden in suspected honour ... trends now
A seven-month-pregnant woman has allegedly been murdered by her boyfriend in a suspected honour killing in Sweden.
Saga Forsgren Elneborg, 20, was strangled to death with a lamp cord in her flat in the Swedish city of Örebro, according to local media.
Prosecutors allege that her boyfriend, Mohamedamin Abdirisek Ibrahim, a refugee from Somalia who now has Swedish citizenship, killed his girlfriend in an 'honour context'.
Police have released pictures of the suspected murder weapon and the crime scene in her bedroom, where Saga's body was found next to her bed, reportedly buried under a marble table top.
The 22-year-old father of Saga's unborn son reportedly concealed their two-year relationship from his family as his mother would not accept that he 'meets white girls', according to an indictment filed last week.
The prosecutor said he was raised with the belief that dating a 'white' woman is 'not okay' and that he 'must date a woman of the same culture', otherwise he would be shunned - but his family reportedly never knew about Saga.
