(NL Times) Ryan Al Najjar, an 18-year-old woman from Joure whose body was found a week ago in [Lelystad], was the victim of an “honor killing,” people who know the family told the Telegraaf. According to them, Ryan’s father killed her because the very religious family could not tolerate her lifestyle.
The young woman’s body was found in the water along Knardijk on May 28. She had last been seen in Joure on May 22. The police have two suspects in custody, a 22-year-old man from Joure and a 24-year-old man from Leeuwarden. According to the Telegraaf’s sources, one of the suspects is a relative of Ryan.
The sources said that Ryan’s father, Khaled (52), killed her, drove her body to Lelystad, and left her there.
