According to reporting by Don MacPherson of The Fredericton Daily Gleaner, who was in court for the sentencing, the first threat was made in April 2016, soon after the family arrived in Canada.

The second threat came last summer, when Bayan's parents learned she was communicating with a Canadian man on social media, and her father said that "for his own dignity, it would be better to slaughter her," the prosecutor said.
