Member of Shafia clan succumbs to sickness

A member of the Shafia clan accused of quadruple murder has fallen ill.   The trial is on hold until further notice.

Although it is unclear who exactly the sick person is the father Mohammad Shafia was the only one absent from court on Thursday.

Shafia along with his wife and son are accused of killing the three female teens in their family and a woman later revealed to be a second wife.  The act appears to be an honour killing. But all three deny any culpability.

The judge will reconvene with lawyers next Tuesday to discuss the medical matter further.
