Mother asks huband: What have you done with my daughter?

The mother of an alleged "honour killing" victim faced her husband across a court room today and demanded: what have you done with my daughter?

Tulay Goren, 15, went missing more than 10 years ago after allegedly being murdered by her father Mehmet for falling in love with the wrong man.

His wife Hanim Goren told the Old Bailey she believed her husband was responsible for the schoolgirl's disappearance.

Giving evidence at his trial today, the 45-year-old turned to speak directly to him in the dock as he looked intently across at her.

"Look at my face. What did you do to Tulay? Say it so that I can...," she said, before being stopped by trial judge Mr Justice Bean.

Mrs Goren said: "It was Mehmet who disappeared Tulay. I am sure of that."

The schoolgirl's father is alleged to have killed her after consulting with his brothers, Cuma and Ali, who are in the dock alongside him.

Mehmet, 49, of Navestock Crescent, Woodford Green, north east London, together with Cuma Goren, 42, of Evesham Avenue, Walthamstow, east London, and Ali Goren, 56, of Brettenham Road, Walthamstow, deny murdering her on January 7 1999.

They also deny conspiracy to murder her boyfriend Halil Unal between May 1998 and February 1999.
