Mais uma vítima do que se convencionou chamar "crime de honra", expressão ironicamente apropriada, uma vez que actos desta natureza acabam por honrar a vítima e trazer opróbrio aos perpetradores.

«On Monday, November 2, 2009, Noor Faleh Almaleki, 20 years old, died as a result of injuries suffered on October 20, 2009 when she and Amal Edan Khalaf, 43 year old female both from Surprise, Arizona, were run down by Noor's father, Faleh Hassan Almaleki on October 20, 2009 in a parking lot at 8990 W.

On Tuesday, October 20, 2009 at approximately 2:00 pm, Suspect Faleh Hassan Almaleki drove his 2000 Jeep Laredo at Victims, Noor Almaleki, his daughter and family friend, Amal Khalaf while the victims were walking across the parking lot of the Department of Economic Security building located at 8990 West Peoria Avenue, Peoria, AZ.
