(AFP) Police on Wednesday arrested the father of two Pakistani sisters living in Spain who were lured back to their homeland last year and killed by family members in a suspected honour killing.
The man, whose identity was not given, was arrested in Terrassa, a town some 30 kilometres northwest of Barcelona where he had been living with his family for years, a police source said.
Investigators are looking to establish his connection to the alleged plot leading to the murder of his daughters, 24-year-old Aneesa Abbas and her 21-year-old sister Arooj, who had wanted to break off their forced marriages, the source said.
