Debate between Naz Shah and John Bercow

Wednesday 18th July 2018 Commons Chamber

[Mr Speaker]

It is good to welcome the hon. Lady back to the House; I call Naz Shah.

[Naz Shah (Bradford West) (Lab)]

Thank you, Mr Speaker. On Saturday, we had the international day of remembrance for victims of honour abuse. This Friday, it will be two years to the day since the rape and murder of my constituent Samia Shahid, who was lured to Pakistan. I thank colleagues in the House, and, in particular, the leader of my party, for showing solidarity with the #honourher campaign today. Will the Prime Minister once again reiterate our commitment to eradicating violence against women and girls? Will she also urge the Pakistani authorities to give justice to Samia Shahid—two years on we are still waiting for a trial?
