Man jailed for beating daughter

A court in southern Norway, has sentenced a man to 120 days in jail for beating his teenage daughter with straps and a metal rod. The beatings were sparked by her admission that she no longer was a virgin.
The 49-year-old man, who emigrated to Norway from Iraq, claimed he'd done nothing wrong. He told the court that he was "much kinder" than many other fathers from his culture would have been.
He claimed most other men would have killed the girl, instead of "just beating her."
Is it normal to do such a awful action in Iraq,I just ask.....?
