Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with some parts of the planet...

Stoned Pakistani woman's husband: I killed my first wife - CNN.com

The husband of Farzana Parveen, the Pakistani woman stoned to death for refusing to participate in an arranged marriage, told CNN he killed his first wife so he could marry Parveen.
Authorities said the first wife was killed six years ago.
"I wanted to send a proposal to Farzana so I killed my wife," Mohammad Iqbal said Thursday in an interview with CNN.

Iqbal was arrested but later released on bail because his son forgave him, Hameed said.
The son, Aurengzeb, who is in his twenties, confirmed his father's statements to CNN. He said his father served a year in jail.

This some amazingly fucked up shit.

He had two wives and was able to kill them? Hmmm...there's something to be said about that Pakistani culture after all.
