The men is this so called 'culture' ruled their women with fear and exerted a medieval control over them. The local Kurdish community must also shoulder some of the responsibility for the happenings, as they tried to close ranks and cover up the crime. They also spied on the girl and reported her actions to her male relatives, fully knowing what the outcome would be.
