Afshan Azad, of Harry Potter Fame, Was Almost A Victim of Sharia

Here is a story posted over at Libertarian Republican about honor killings that hits close to the entertainment home:

The London Daily Mail is reporting on the attempted killing of actress Afshan Azad. She played Padma Patil in the latter Harry Potter movies. However, the Mail neglects to mention the religious affiliation of the father and son who are accused of the assault.

From the Daily Mail, July 2:

A Harry Potter actress has fled her home after her father and brother allegedly threatened to kill her.

Afshan Azad, 22, who has appeared in four of the blockbuster movies as Padma Patil, is now believed to be staying with friends in London.

Her father Abdul Azad, 54, and brother Ashraf Azad, 28, both of Longsight in Manchester (photo of downtown Manchester), were arrested and charged.

Both are accused of threatening to kill her.

Ashraf Azad is also accused of assaulting his sister causing her actual bodily harm….

But Infidel Bloggers Alliance asks:

Will Harry Potter fans begin to recognize in radical Islam the face of Voldemort and the Death Eaters? Or will the PC/MC indoctrination they have received all their lives corral their natural, spontaneous outrage into the safe confines of “cultural relativism”?
