 Texas man arrested with 75 pounds of marijuana in luggage while flying to London, police say A Texas man was arrested at Miami International Airport after authorities found 75 pounds of marijuana in his luggage before he could board a flight to London. Harrison O’Neill Tiernan, 23, from Austin, was charged with cannabis trafficking. He was traveling to Heathrow Airport and had checked two suitcases for his British Airways flight.

 Father Kills Daughter Over TikTok Videos in Pakistan


A father in Pakistan has been arrested for killing his teenage daughter after she posted videos on TikTok that he deemed inappropriate, police confirmed on Thursday.


The man, believed to be in his 50s, had recently returned with his family from the U.S. to settle in Quetta, a city in southwestern Pakistan, according to local police chief Babar Baloch.


The father admitted to shooting his daughter earlier this week after she refused to dress more modestly and stop sharing what the family considered "indecent" TikTok videos.


Authorities are investigating the case as an instance of "honour killing."


In Pakistan, approximately 1,000 women are killed annually by family members—fathers, brothers, and sons—under the guise of protecting family honour, according to the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan (HRCP).


Many of these killers avoid punishment due to a controversial provision in Islamic law that allows family members to forgive the perpetrator, a practice criticized by human rights organizations like Amnesty International.


Although a 2016 law aimed to reduce the impact of this clause, it has done little to halt the widespread occurrence of honour killings, the HRCP reported.
