Copenhagen: Brother arrested for 'honor' beating sister

Via Politiken (Danish):

A teenager (17) from Copenhagen has been remanded to 14 days in custody for beating his sister (14). The brother apparently believed his sister's lifestyle violated the family's honor.

The police were called in when a neighbor saw the girl, who was walking around with very little on. The brother had beaten, stomped and kicked his sister. He also beat her with a vacuum-cleaner. The girl had wanted to invite boys to the family home.
