- In 2021 a woman was found, terribly injured, at the foot of Arthur's seat in Edinburgh, Scotland. She later died, and a police investigation led to a trial. She was pushed by her husband.
Kashif Anwar, Fawziyah’s husband was convicted and received a minimum sentence of 20 years, although he intends to appeal the ruling.
In an exclusive interview with BBC Newsnight, Yasmin Javed, mother of Fawziyah Javed, reveals details of her daughter's tragic murder.
Yasmin Javed believes one of the motives for her daughter's death was so-called "honour" based - alongside, coercive control, and jealousy.

That man's family created him. The fact that they are spreading rumors means he was taught how to be the way he is.
There are sharia courts secretly operating around the country (this has been documented with evidence) and many archaic preaching's that don't always modernise values. So I doubt it is just the family. I imagine there is an echo chamber around his friends that he has grown up with, I know because I hear it around groups where I live. This is a very extreme case, but the country will develop a bit more towards trends of coercion and archaic religious thought, because the natives are just not having enough babies. His family sound horrible as well, but then if you are raised to mistrust women and dress them head to toe because they can't be trusted I imagine you will have a complex about the women involved with your son.
so true!
@@Musician7831well I'm Muslim... I'd love to know where are these secretive Sharia courts.... 😂
Please explain... Last I checked it was only the Jews who had their own police, ambulance service etc somewhere in Staffordshire.
The Muslims don't have the money power or influence to do that.
But let's for a second day they did.... And they had their own Sharia courts etc.... Why aren singling the Muslims out when other communities have been doing the exact thing and more for decades.
@@Musician7831to be honest I always thought they completely covered their women in black sacks head to toe so the men didn’t lust after them, after all they are seen purely as a possession, a bit like a breading cow, not a human being. This is a vile & evil religion that’s all about control either of women or whole sections of the community, just as Christianity was centuries ago when churches ruled & few people actually read & understood the Bible.
My thoughts exactly.
Good on her mom telling her to leave. So many encourage their daughters to work it out.
And staying to work it out is the best thing to do.
Obviously this is a rare and unique case.
This mother could have done more. Her daughter CHOSE to stay with a man who regularly attacked her when she has many opportunities to walk. Sad.
@@hmmmmm2634what an ignorant comment. You don’t know them or the situation well enough to interject your opinion. These are real people not a TV show, keep your judgements to yourself and mind your own business.
Then again why is the mom still wearing the hijab, the same that was restricting her daughter's freedom. In some ways, the mom of the dead girl was complicit in this sordid affair.
@@selvamthiagarajan8152yes in some countries hijabs are mandatory and it is used oppressively and not doing so can cost a woman her life.
In other countries it is not mandatory it is a choice they make out of modesty which is a teaching in their religion.
In the non mandatory countries it is the same as Pentecostal women not wearing pants or jewelry, Amish women dressing in muted colors and giving their hair with bonnets.
Can’t imagine the horror of losing a daughter never mind under such terrible circumstances, my deepest heartfelt condolences to you.
Who cares?!
@@rammingspeed5217 You, enough to watch and enough to comment m.
@@rammingspeed5217 Maybe someone will say the same one day when you die.
@@catalinacurio nobody cares.. So why should I?
@@rammingspeed5217you cared enough to comment twice so you obviously do. You sound as insecure and dumb as this jealous evil coward of a man. I hope he rots in jail.
I hope the guy that killed her rots in jail.
Such a truly horrible man. My heart breaks for this grieving Mum and her family. Mum obviously raised a fabulous daughter. Anwar’s parents should be ashamed of their evil, monstrous son.
THIS JUST SHOWS OUR COUNTRY HAS TERRIBLE SENTENCING FOR CRIMES
Systems been floored for years and will never get better
The man who murdered her and her unborn child is such a brutal fashion received the MINIMUM sentence of 20 years! This should be life in prison minimum!
Yet another outrageous decision by Britain's broken legal system. In 20 years this killer could be free, but their daughter and unborn grandchild are gone forever.
I do NOT understand such a minimal sentence. What is it with Britain?!
@@julierogers1155 I wish I had an answer. Oftentimes it feels like these British judges have more sympathy for killers and criminals than they do victims and their loved ones.
Should be fed to animals
I hate to play devil's advocate; but most murderers get between 8 to 25 years, that's quite normal. I know right? I was shocked that a rapist in the US (and I think most western democracies) will only get a Maximum sentence of like 8 years, so they're eligible for parole in 4; but actually they usually only get 4-6 years to begin with and they're out in half that time. Crazy! But I do understand it, there are other circumstances where murder is committed and a 12-25 year sentence makes sense, and the law has to treat everyone the same wither the murder was committed in cold blood or hot. Very sad tale though.
He'll likely do double his minimum sentences before his release . He'll be an old man by then.
Dear Yasmin
I can tell your daughter was a beautiful angel, with a loving soul xx You my dear are and will always be an amazing parent😍 you too have a beautiful soul and I pray that you find peace as time goes by 😘 xxx
But why is the mother subjecting herself to wearing a head scarf, considered oppressive.
@@selvamthiagarajan8152maybe because it’s not oppressive
@helloyou9533 didn't he daughter get beat to dxxth for not wearing one? Did you not read the news? This video is all about the unfortunate, brutal demise of her daughter.
20years minimum is just not justice!
That poor family 😭. I'm sorry for your loss 😞.
I nearby when this woman was killed, people were very shocked. RIP
Why? It’s normal for these people.
@@NoWindNoSunNoPoweralright you got your second of fame, go jerk off or something
"these people"...
@@NoWindNoSunNoPowerthey look Asian... Probably Pakistani
Pakistan has a 5000 year old civilization...
Mind telling ulus who you are... So we can identify the ignorance.
😮 Do you mean insecure little control freak men? Who do what they want but abuse women to silence them??
Why did you marry her? You know you are not on the same level, you could never be as smart, beautiful and special as Fawziah or any of the other women that go through this. Stop marrying above your grade.
Because she has money and a house..he had no honourable intentions.
I don't understand how a person could be so cruel and callous to the one they are supposed to love, protect and cherish.
Often it’s driven by Envy🤢
I don’t understand why anyone would continue living with an abuser. This woman has the finances and support to get our. She chose not to.
@@hmmmmm2634 She didn’t choose that! Often victims of such evil underestimate the evil perpetrators because it’s someone so close, like a sibling, a parent, a spouse. Relationships can be complex especially when children are involved. She intended to leave-- but it was too late for her 💔
@@hmmmmm2634 Yep I've wondered that many times myself. I think some of them are so mentally broken down they believe it's normal or they deserve it.
it's the manipulation. Abusers can have a lot of power of their victims @@hmmmmm2634
I remember being in a similar situation with a very close loved one. She wouldn't leave despite several scary incidents because his name was on the deed for the house which he had barely contributed to despite being the only one properly employed. I told her to leave, money is NOT more valuable than life, but she refused. Luckily she was the exception and he eventually stopped but I knew other stories all too similar to this one.
IF YOU ARE BEING ABUSED DO NOT BUY TIME OH I HAVE A PLAN GET OUT OF THAT SITUATION GET THAT PERSON ARRESTED AND DO NOT TELL ANYONE WHERE YOU ARE NOT EVEN YOUR MOM AND DAD JUST ESCAPE AND LIVE YOUR LIFE
I'm so touched by your story and immense heart ache. Condolences to you. We'll remember your lovely daughter and her unborn child.
😢 so so sorry this happened to this beautiful young woman, I pray Allah grant's her jannat ul firdous ameen and grant her family lots of patience 🙏
Horrible, how can people be so cruel
Easy, follow islam
@@chuckjones1358so 2b people are pure evil right? Including the victim herself.
How can people be so honourable!
@@chuckjones1358ow does following islam = go through your wife off a cliff? how does it logically follow or you just a dumb salty atheist
@Connor-wi5pp wrong, it is a reality but your head is buried in the sand when your kneeling to the sand wizard Allah Bin Laden
This demonstrates the weakness and dysfunction of a patriarchal, misogynistic society that tries to make females second class citizens. In the end it will end the men and society that perpetrate this injustice and criminality.
Condolences to those who truly loved Fawziyah.
Hey you can't say this! You're being racist 🙄
Absolutely. this is a culture of misogyny and patriarchy. it should not belong in the UK.
Yes sadly happens a lot in the UK amongst all backgrounds.
Or you know, random german guy that decides to push 2 girls off a cliff for denying his advances
@@inofloats8201 That monster is American ... but, yes, that too. UGH.
I hope that cruel, barbarous man spends his whole life in jail. Fawziyah, may you rest in peace. my condolences to her parents.
Ladies, be careful around *cliffs* or high structures. Around abusive partners or even shady strangers (like the tourist who pushed 2 girls off a cliff recently in Germany)
His parents knew that he was Rotten ..And they was bloody evil to her...Heartbreaking...RIP....❤
.
Let anwar come out I’m sure the Pakistani community will push him off the edge along with his mom and dad who brought such evil into this world
I'm so very sorry for what happened to your daughter. From experience, I know how even the strongest young women can become trapped in an abusive marriage. RIP beautiful Fawziyah 🥀
He sounds like an Andrew Tate devotee. Someone who was obsessed with control. Delusion of Self empowerment to an extreme that results in using one's own will to dominate others. "My house", etc.
Sounds like a fragile muslim and a thief.
Nah. This guy is devoted to a more spiritual, more peaceful one.
Are you stupid DON’T INVOLVE PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS. I CAN SAY YOU LISTEN TO VIOLENT MUSIC THATS WHY YOU SAID THIS RUBBISH.
sounds like your dad
Unfortunately he and his ilk are able to ensure their vile views are spread around the world via social media and they often find willing hearers/audiences in the more fundamental branches of different religions. Fundamental christianity is as bad as fundamental islam* and NEITHER follow the actual teachings but prefer their ow*n perverted versions instead. Cherry picking from what they follow to suit their own agendas.
*lower case intentional as neither view represents the mainstream view in either religion.
Anwar was a jealous of her and he had boasted about marrying a solicitor even though he was just a assistant in a opticians, so letting her go would have been embarrassing
So very sorry for the loss of this young bright woman. It’s a shame she didn’t leave when able. Loss of her money would be better that her ultimate loss of life. But that is hindsight. Hopefully l, others in the situation will learn from this horrible story. Her family, friends and other victims of abuse continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.
My condolences to the family.
Exactly. He chose to abuse her….she CHOSE to stay and take that abuse.
@@hmmmmm2634how do you know that you shit eating broke british bum?? 😂
My deepest condolences to you and your family. May beautiful Fauzia rest in peace 🤎
Emotional abuse, domestic violence and coercive control can happen in any culture or marriage, in any socio economic bracket. There is published research on this. I wish some of the commenters here would acknowledge this as they post. Let's try to look for red flags if we suspect any colleagues, friends or relatives are suffering with this sort of situation and be actively supportive.
While it’s true that any man could be abusive there are religious based cultures that promote and condone total control over women. We can acknowledge the problems and abuses this engenders. Many watching this video may look at this and say quite simply “she married a traditional guy, what did she expect” and they wouldn’t be far off.
'Published research' = academic propaganda.
We know. Don't hand me your flowers....
@@r8chllettersMan?

How bigoted of you.

Dear Yasmin ~ It's impossible to imagine your pain. Sending extra angels of comfort to you and fervent prayers that justice ensues... although it probably won't be enough.
Paz y luz.

heartfelt peace for Fawziyah in the universe, sincere condolences to her Mother and Family ❤
Jail the parents too.
This is appalling - love to the family! ❤❤❤
Feel her pain, what a terrible loss of life. Heart goes out to Fawziyah’s family. Rest in peace
"Don't be that British woman!" - Ah yes the assimilation is coming along swimmingly...
And he's a Muslim in prison he'll be treated just fine.
LOL you sound nazi
They come and take everything, houses, benefits, etc and keep in their own groups. They commit crimes and we are supposed to welcome them. This is Britain. If they come here, they should forget their religion completely or else go back to Muslim lands.
Murderers should never be released.
Mum is such a beautiful soul, my heart goes out to this family❤
THEY WERE’NT GOING THERE TOGETHER HE WAS LEADING HER TO HER DEMISE.
LOOK HOW FAR BEHIND HIM SHE WAS WALKING, SHE CLEARLY DIDN’T WANT TO BE THERE, WHY DID SHE GO ANYWHERE WITH HIM HE WAS A MONSTER TO HER.
IT MAKES NO COMMON SENSE.
MY PRAYERS GO OUT TO HER FAMILY,
MAY FARZIA REST IN PEACE WITH HER BABY BOY.
GOD BLESS THEM BOTH. ❤️💙🙏🏼💙❤️
My thoughts exactly, I don't understand why she went with him. 🤔
@@meme-mu8mg iv seen cctv where they were actually walking arm in arm.i think she was just trying to act normal on the trip.but reality is she was planning to leave him when they got back .
ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT MESSAGES that has not been said, is: “Leave all your belongings and money with the abuser if they’ve taken control of them”
Wanting that £12,000 back is what eventually caused her death. That’s why she kept going back and that wedding ceremony to keep his family happy.
She could’ve saved £12,000 up again. She was a solicitor and should’ve fought for that money, legally, through the court system, whilst living back at her parents home.
👉🏽Never put money above your own life.
She did not deserve what happened to her. ❤
He would have found other ways to get to her though as she was pregnant. I think in his mind he knew what he was going to do already.
I’m so sorry for your loss
My condolences, cannot begin to imagine.
That killer need to be in jail for life long . Distorting others life 😢
He might not have shown his prospective in-laws what a thug he was, but they could see that he was uneducated. Education is a huge trigger for men with nothing to offer. Poor Fawziyah would have had no companionship in that marriage.
I agree
Lack of education is not indicative of being a thug. However the education gap makes insecurity more likely. That combined with cultural religious aspects which change with generation and geography is enough for concern.
They like everyone should live together for a few years before they get married. It's a shame the culture religion does not permit it.
@@scoopbls a complete education isn't simply academic. He hadn't learned any of the discipline and self control that people pick up in any walk of life. Religion is probably a huge part of the problem in this case, especially where men are still being taught an inflated view of their own importance.
Heartbreaking how some men can be so cruel. She loved him to the very end. Be at peace Fawziyah.
The worst part is when it’s at the hands of the one who’s supposed to love you the most. He should rot in jail!
How can someone do that to their wife and unborn child, that child has ur dna running through him, so evil.
Outdated views of marriage should not be part of modern British society. There are laws to be kept in any country where one lives. He was hitting her. In UK that is against the law.
British people also suffer from domestic violence . It’s not something specific to a specific culture
Why you acting like white men don't do this? This is so common in the UK
To our lord we belong and to him we return. Prayers for fozia
May Allah grant fowzia jannah and give her family justice and sabr ameen ❤
STAY STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL MOMMA🥰
Hey how are you doing today..?😊
Absolutely heartbreaking! These men are animals and vultures! The police have failed her! What a brave mum to tell her story!
I am so so sorry for your loss.
me too
There are always reasons to believe you need to do this or that before leaving but really if you are thinking of leaving you should have left already. Being in an abusive relationship means you’ve already been damaged slowly over time and twisted against yourself by the time you realize things are bad. This is usually the reason women stay in situations they should not. I am surprised given the nature of audio documentation the court did not make this an honor abuse case but perhaps the burden of proof is higher and it being capital murder they just wanted to get him convicted. If only she had just left and understood her 12k wasn’t worth dying for. But she let him get her pregnant and was now even more stuck. Escaping with her life would have at least spared her family and her future. Such a preventable tragedy.
The murderer is a psychopath evil 😈
The worst part is the parents are so ashamed of their son's actions they can't accept what he had done because they raised him and know it is them that raised such a monster.
Amazed BBC has left comments on for this one. I live in Edinburgh and have followed this case from the beginning and as far as I can tell a large part of the motivation for this was, yes, jealousy, but also the honour-based codes of Islam, which can so easily be used and abused to feed and justify one man’s need to control. I’m not specifically having a go at Islam here as I’m agnostic and mistrust *all* organised religion, but Hitchens had it right when he said quite simply: “religion poisons everything”.
I as well. Too often "islamophobia" is used as a shield to cover against legitimate criticisms Islam, and as this case has shown, result in real people being harmed and even killed. The fact that this man, who committed double homicide, received a minimum sentence (20 years) only inflames my suspicions of 'special treatment'.
Islam is a vile and disgusting ideology.
Agreed.
There is no such 'honour code' in islam. Stop spreading nonsense or otherwise present your proof from scripture. Women are to be protected in islam. There is 0 excuse for this man's behaviour and he actually gets the death penalty in islam for what he has done (not a few silly years behind bars he will get in the west). We don't know the reason behind this poor girl's decision to not divorce him the instant he started showing his true abusive colours (maybe similar to most abuse victims who stay), but she had every right to in islam. Spreading this nonsense allows these criminals to get away with this behaviour by pointing at the wrong issue. HE is an abusive murderer and he deserves punishment for it.
@@abcdefghijk1024 Really? That’ll be why the very mother of the victim, who is a Muslim herself, believes a large part of the reason for this act was “honour based”.
Sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter 😢 x
BRING SHARIA LAW!!!!
2 or 3 women a week are murdered in the UK by partners or ex partners.
Evil man
If only there was some indicator.. some way to tell.
Very very sad 😢😢
Some people are monsters. There is no cure for them, just evil !
He should've got a life sentence. He murdered two people! I've seen the interviews her Mum has been doing. She's a strong lady
These Pakistani husbands are getting out of control 😮
Why is everybody so heartless and cold 🥶
If only there is a death penalty…..
SHARIA LAW!!!
There needs to be a long engagement periods so parents can see who is marrying their daughters.
You do know that their religious and cultural practices are different?
This wasn't an arrange marriage
Tragic! Hell hath no fury like an evil male "scorned". (Where "scorned" means not having total control.)
Toxic culture. Heartbreaking.
Yeah toxic it happens a lot in the UK unfortunately no one takes it seriously regardless of ethnic or cultural background. Even men face abuse not long ago this white british lady tried to murder her white british partner and he seemed so terrified and under her control he couldn't even leave her even when the police was there! Unfortunately it takes a lot for anything to actually happen and for safety to be provided by someone since often times it only happens because the family or friends are too scared to involve themselves in the relationship...very sad indeed... really hope people will look around them selves and notice the signs! Don't ignore your white colleagues thinking "ah they're white no one can abuse them" or something ridiculous. Probably how the poor man was abused by his partner for so many years.
@@inofloats8201that's the exception. Islamic men abusing women is the rule. Iran is there for everyone to see.
@@hellenmoreira9991 u a man or lady can't even tell
You did a good job to stand for your daughter’s justice.
That poor mother, she knows that vile man, using religion to cover his evil, will get out of prison one day & carry on with his life. Whereas her daughter is gone forever. I wish women in this situation would leave while they can & not always be waiting for the right time, so many of them leave it till it’s too late. But saying that, many do leave only for the evil partner to stalk them & still kill them later. You should always leave a violent partner the very first time they abuse you, it only ever gets worse.
Hello how are you doing today?😊
Anwar and his family are not helping British Muslims.
Meanwhile domestic violence and abuse being significantly higher in white British families....
Do you believe that we need help? When you see a a murder of other ethnicities do you automatically judge their entire ethnicity ?
@@haideraliibnakhlaq8823 I don't remember anyone throwing their wife off a mountain in UK but this is normal in Islamic countries.
I remember a german man pushing 2 american ladies of a cliff actually quite recently...
@@JohnofthefamilySmithi also remember a white british lady abusing her partner for years and his parents being aware of it but not wanting to get involved of fear of interfering in their relationship. He even stopped seeing his friends and they didnt bother to check on him? She nearly killed the poor man. He was so afraid he almost didn't leave her even when the police offered help. Poor man looked emancipated like he'd been starved for months.
BEAUTIFUL mother.
Too sad!
Khashif's family are no better. As far as I'm aware, they haven't shown an ounce of remorse for Fawziya's demise. They need to be fair and honest and return all of Fawziya's possessions. It shows that these are not good people. The marriage should have never happened as they are world's apart and the warning signs of his behaviour were there. She was treated badly from the beginning and then the abuse followed. One question comes to mind, if your daughter was an Angel, perfect in every way, why didn't you do some background checks on Kashif and his family. I totally agree the good what Fawziya was, a totally innocent and beautiful soul inside and out, why did you give your daughter away so easily to a virtually unknown person and I personally would not have accepted Fawziya going to live with his family. They should have arranged a place of their own. At the end of the day, it wasn't a good arranged match and the signs were there in the beginning before the actual marriage. It's always going to be hard for Fawziya's family and it's going to make little difference that this evil monster got a life sentence with minimum 20 years. Hope he has a hard time in prison and that he never ever gets released to experience the air of freedom again.
Am so sorry mama, my heart bleeds for you. RIP Fawziah 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
People get longer in prison for less, the justice system needs an overhaul. Not only has he murdered someone (his own wife) but the abuse and coersive bahaviour for clearly a long time warrants a massive sentence. The way he speaks to her like telling her not to be that "British women" amazes me, he forgets she was born and raised in Britain and knew her rights as a British citizen where as he was trying to invoke on her his own warped beliefs. Sad
I've not been able to stop thinking about this young lady, her unborn baby and family since watching The Push documentary recently 💔
RIP 🕊️
Why has the Scottish government not demolished this dangerous outcrop, or not fenced it off with barbed wire? We all know this is how Westminster would deal with this ridiculously dangerous situation.
What? Don't be idiotic. Are you joking? So you think that every hill should be flattered incase someone pushes someone off it? It isn't the hill's fault it is this idiotic fault. You could push a woman out of any building's window. Or off a car park. It is nothing to do with this hill.
🤣
20 years is nothing. System is a joke
Very sad , a weak man controls, a strong man let's go ,
I would love to have a daughter like her. This is such a sad story.
Makes no sense going on high hills , pregnant,with very abusive person, dangerous situation to be in, not sure what was going on
Why did she go on that steep cliff when she was pregnant? I don’t understand.
So heartbreaking 😢
All hindsight now. But she probably felt it was safe enough but sadly it wasn't
Very sad, what a waste of a pure soul. May she RIP.
Wow evil man
Rip precious angels 🙏
Im sure her family would’ve been totally up in arms if she wanted to marry a non muslim. Marry for the right reasons people!
So sorry god bless you ❤️😔
Why why do they still do such marriages?
The disconnect between the violence and abusiveness of the male and the choice of marriage ceremony is very strange to me.
This is the problem with male culture within islamism
It's got nothing to do with Islam. How ignorant. Are you saying there's no domestic abuse within couples who follow other religions.
She was naive to go with him to that place, may she and her bby rest in paradise! ❤
Poor mum and dad lm so sorry 💫🙏🙏🙏🙏🫂
That is incorrect, Islam gives women rights to divorce!!! It’s so annoying listening to people who have no idea what they’re talking about! This was murder, domestic abuse just like the police found!
if it was into an oil well then bbc would say he is most intelligent man in this universe
I don't get it
How sad 😢
Who knew that allowing people from a very different culture to that which prevails in Britain to settle could be problematic?
Domestic abuse and murder occurs in every culture unfortunately, but also so do happy and loving families.
