A Dutch court sentenced Khaled al Najjar, 53, to 30 years in prison in absentia for the 2024 honor killing of his 18-year-old daughter Ryan, who was bound, drowned, and dumped in a nature reserve.
His sons, Mohamed, 23, and Muhanad, 25, received 20-year sentences for complicity.
Prosecutors said Ryan’s Western behavior, including relationships with men and online expression, prompted the attack.
DNA and digital evidence linked all three to the crime, though the father fled to Syria, where no extradition exists.
The brothers denied involvement but were found to have aided in covering up the murder.
The case has sparked national debate over honor-based violence and cultural integration.
