A man serving life in jail for ordering the murder of his niece in a so called ‘honour killing’ is suing ITV over claims he also allowed her rape.
Banaz Mahmod was aged 20 when she was killed on the orders of her father Mahmod Mahmod and uncle Ari Mahmod after she left an abusive arranged marriage.
Other family members and friends were recruited to carry out the murder and she was raped by three of her cousins before being strangled.
