She ties her daughter to radiator with rope and tape when she goes shopping
A 40-year-old woman from Iraq living in Mechelen, province of Antwerp, Belgium, is accused of inhuman beatings to her teenage daughter.
The pupil guidance centre diagnosed injuries in the 16-year-old girl's face, after which the girl revealed that her mother had inflicted these injuries. The mother allegedly tied the girl to a radiator with a rope and tape on several occasions when she went shopping with her son. The girl had been beaten by her mother since she was seven years old. First by hand, then with props such as a power strip, a stick and kitchen utensils.
The prosecution demanded that the mother be sentenced to two years' suspended imprisonment.
