Dad accused of shooting daughter to death for having unauthorized "friendship" (Jaffarabad, Pakistan)

UNNAMED DAD is suspected of shooting his daughter to death for having "friendship" with some "person of the area." Apparently, Dad didn't care for that. Such a terrible thing, this friendship thing. More enemies and bizarre honor killing violence--that's what this planet really needs. (That's sarcasm--just in case our sarcasm-impaired readers didn't catch it.)
