A teenager pregnant with her rapist’s baby was brutally murd£red by her fiancé after he found out about the rape in Turkey, according to reports.
Oya Budak, 18, was five-and-a-half months pregnant when she was shot dead in the apparent honour k!lling, Turkish news agencies said.
She was taken to hospital with a gunshot wound to the chest but di£d along with her baby, local media reports.
Ms Budak reportedly became pregnant after being r@ped by another man several weeks before her engagement.
Her fiancé is said to have ended the relationship when he became aware of the situation.
The man, 19, was arrested in Istanbul and confessed, says Turkish media.
Orhan Budak, the grandfather of Ms Budak, said, “When she said she was in pain, her fiance took her to the hospital and learned she was pregnant.”
It was learned that Ms Budak’s family was unaware that she had been r@ped and became pregnant.
When her fiancé’s family found out about the pregnancy, they reportedly did not want him to marry Ms Budak.
The k!lling, which occurred in Istanbul overnight, was the 209th femicide this year in Turkey, according to a women’s rights group.
Women’s rights groups in Turkey accuse the authorities of failing to act to stop a wave of femicides.
It comes as the country has seen femicide and transphobic crimes skyrocket in recent years.
