outrage as egypt plans ‘farewell intercourse’ law
so husbands can have sex with dead wives
up to six hours after their death
egyptian husbands will soon be legally allowed to have sex with their dead wives - for up to six hours after their death.
the controversial new law is part of a raft of measures being introduced by the islamist-dominated parliament.
it will also see the minimum age of marriage lowered to 14and the ridding of women’s rights of getting education and employment.
egyptian journalist amro abdul samea reported in the al-ahram newspaper that talawi complained about the legislations which are being introduced under ‘alleged religious interpretations’.
the subject of a husband having sex with his dead wife arose in may 2011 when moroccan cleric zamzami abdulb ari said marriage remains valid even after death.
he also said that women have the right to have sex with her dead husband, alarabiya.net reported.
It seems the topic, which has sparked outrage, has now been picked up on by Egypt’s politicians.
tv anchor jaber al-qarmouty slammed the notion of letting a husband have sex with his wife after her death under the so-called ‘Farewell Intercourse’ draft law.
‘this is very serious. could the panel that will draft the egyptian constitution possibly discuss such issues? did abdul samea see by his own eyes the text of the message sent by talawi to katatni?
‘this is unbelievable. it is a catastrophe to give the husband such a right! has the islamic trend reached that far? is there really a draft law in this regard? are there people thinking in this manner?’

if my pet could understand english for 5 minutes,
what would i tell him?
i would tell my chigi that i do things for his own good. i’m sorry that he can’t go everywhere with me. i’m sorry he can’t eat the same food as me (though i’ve tried his dog food). i’m sorry we don’t go for longer walks even though he loves them so damn much. i would tell him his daddy works long hours for him. i would thank him for saving my life after i fought with alcoholism [by] being there for me, making me feel less alone. i would tell him that the only reason his daddy has a girlfriend is because he broke the ice when [she and i] were dating. i would tell him that the only reason i have a daughter is because of him. i would tell him that the only reason i got through the hard times, the only reason i am still around, is because of him. i would tell him that i love him and i would tell him that i hope i die before he does because i can’t stand the thought of being without him. my buddy. 50% corgi, 50% chihuahua, 100% awesome.

Meenakshi Thappar Dead:
Bollywood Actress Killed After Kidnapping By Co-Stars
Bollywood actress Meenakshi Thapar reportedly has been gruesomely killed by two of her co-stars in a failed attempt to extort money from her family.
26-year-old Thapar was strangled and then beheaded after allegedly being kidnapped by two aspiring actors that she worked with on her latest film “Heroine”.
Amit Jaiswal, 36, and his lover Preeti Surin, reportedly decided to kidnap Ms. Thapar after listening to her boast about her family’s wealth and status in Dehra Dun, in the Himalayan foothills of northern India, according to Britain’s Daily Telegraph.
The New York Daily News quotes Indian police as saying Amit Jaiswal and his girlfriend Preeti Surin allegedly lured Thapar on a trip with them to the town of Gorakhpur. According to the report, the pair then took Thapar captive and sent threatening communications to her mother, saying they would force her to make pornographic films if their demands were not met.
Jaiswal and Surin had demanded a 1,500,000-rupee (approximately $28,000) ransom from Thapar’s family. The International Business Times reports that Thapar’s mother gave the kidnappers 60,000 rupees (just over $1,000). The pair evidently decided the amount was insufficient, and reportedly killed Thapar by strangling her to death and then beheading her.
The Daily Caller reports that Jaiswal and Surin were subsequently discovered in posession of Thapar’s cellphone and simcard and confessed to the murder.
Thapar was best-known for her role in Indian horror film “404”. She met her killers while working on that film, according to National Turk.
