Father kills girl over affair with man from another caste
A 45-year-old man has been arrested for allegedly killing his
17-year-old daughter after spotting her with a young man near his house
around midnight. The accused was opposed to his daughter’s friendship
with the young man, who belonged to a different caste.
The
incident occurred at Khoraon village under Kokhraj police station area
of neighbouring Kaushambi district on Monday. The accused, Jhallar,
younger brother of the village pradhan, was arrested early on Tuesday
from his house.
According
to the police, Jhallar, a farmer, had gone to sleep along with other
family members at his house. Around midnight, he woke up for some
purpose and realised that one of his four daughters, Anju, was not in
the house, the police said.
Jhallar began looking for her and spotted her with the man at a tubewell, around near the house.
“The man escaped from the spot, while Jhallar caught hold of his daughter. He brought her to the
house
and beat her up badly. As the girl fell unconscious, he picked up a
gandasa (a sharp agricultural implement) and slit her throat. The girl
died on the spot,” Station Officer (Kokhraj) Sri Prakash Yadav said.
Soon,
police reached the spot and arrested Jhallar, who did not make any
attempt to escape. Superintendent of Police (Kaushambi), Anil Das, said:
“The accused knew about his daughter’s friendship with the young man,
who belonged to another caste. He was strongly opposed to their
relation.”
The
police claimed that the accused has confessed to having killed his
daughter and the weapon of offence has also been recovered. Yadav
further added that Jhallar had already warned his daughter against
having any relation with the man.
