[edit]I don't think this should be merged with "consent" Condonation is a legal term of art that has an independant meaning (particularly in divorce law) despite the words being synonyms.
This is quite correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CF99:2080:75D0:6FA4:5200:EB8 (talk) 00:42, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
Honor killings
[edit]- Section moved to talk. This is not condonation as defined in the article and the word condonation does not occur in the reference. RJFJR (talk) 18:20, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
The principle of condonation or near-equivalents can shield those who commit honor killings from punishment:[1]
"Nearly 1,000 women are murdered in Pakistan each year for violating conservative norms on love and marriage. The so-called "honour killings" are often carried out by family members. Such killings are considered murder. But Sharia in Pakistan allows a murder victim's family to pardon the killer, which often allows those convicted of honour killings to escape punishment."
