These good people got married for love. They, and the husband's family, all fled the area in fear of retaliation from the bride's family. When
they returned for the EID holiday, they were viciously attacked ... limbs cut, ears and nose chopped off.
That was murder by individuals, not execution by a government. And I'm sure there were many people outraged at these actions on that day, just like
Muslims around the world today are outraged at the simple fact that Saddam was executed on Eid.
