Pakistani police have denied they did nothing to stop an honor killing in front of a court in Lahore. Farzana Parveen was bludgeoned to death by her family for marrying a man of her own choice. Police say she had died by the time they were able to intervene. Ms Parveen's husband Muhammad Iqbal has maintained that officers stood by as the attack took place. Meanwhile, Iqbal himself has admitted killing his first wife six years ago in order to marry Mrs Parveen.
