Italy: Muslim on trial for persecuting ‘too Western’ niece

A 33-year-old Moroccan man had been put on trial in Modena for allegedly persecuting his 25-year-old Moroccan niece because she had taken on Western ways, married an Italian and had two children with him, judicial sources said Tuesday.
    The defendant has been charged with subjecting his niece to verbal and physical violence and persecutory acts for months between 2020 and 2021.
    He has also been charged with stalking her.
    The nice and her husband, who was also allegedly the victim of the man’s persecution, are standing as plaintiffs in the trial in the Emilian city.
    The woman told the court Tuesday: “He beat me, threatened me with death and stopped me from going out and dressing as I wanted.
    “I feared for my safety”.
