In the summer of 1989, Nepalese student Nirmala met Afghan refugee Mohammed Ataie in the capital city of Kathmandu. They fell in love, even though they did not share a common language or religion. Nirmala followed her future husband to asylum in Bremen, where two of his brothers already lived. The Hindu woman converted to Islam and married in April 1990 according to Islamic rites. On their wedding night, disaster struck. He accused her of not being a virgin, abused her for hours, and locked her in the room assigned to them in the asylum seekers' accommodation. Nirmala managed to flee to a women's shelter twice. She was living there when her husband forced her to meet him in the Bürgerpark with a letter from Nepal. There he killed her with seventeen knife stabs.
