Excerpt:
Honour killing victim Banaz Mahmod was failed by police when she turned to them for protection, an investigation has ruled.
The 20-year-old Muslim begged police for help four times before her brutal murder at the hands of her father and her uncle.
Her fears were not taken seriously, even after she smashed her way out of her grandmother's house to escape her family's first attempt at killing her.
The police officer who took her statement, PC Angela Cornes, dismissed her account as fantasy and wanted to charge her with criminal damage because she broke a window during her escape, her Old Bailey murder trial was told.
