(ANSA) - ROME, OCT 31 - The brother of Saman Abbas, an 18-year-old Pakistani-Italian woman allegedly killed by her family near Reggio Emilia in 2021 after refusing an arranged marriage, told their trial Tuesday that he had seen his uncle grab her by the neck and drag her behind a greenhouse before killing her.
    "I saw the whole scene. I was at the door. My sister was walking, my uncle grabbed her by the neck and carried her behind the greenhouse. I saw the cousins, just their faces", he told the Assize Court, recounting the alleged final moments of the girl's life, allegedly killed in Novellara, on the evening of 30 April 2021.
    The brother one again accused his uncle and cousins of materially carrying out the crime organised, according to prosecution, with Saman's parents, who are also on trial with the uncle and two cousins. (ANSA).
