Mohammed Lhasni, from Morocco, has been kicked out of the southern European country after serving a five year prison sentence for bearing his 19-year-old daughter to death in September 2004. The 64-year-old devout Muslim became furious after his daughter, Kaoutar, had fallen in love with a man who he disapproved of.

He beat her with his fists and a stick and kicked her so severely he broke several of her bones. Kaoutar died in agony an hour after the assault, choking on her own vomit.
