‘They Will Kill Me': Woman Texted Her Boyfriend Before Getting Killed For ‘Honour' In Gujarat
In a chilling case of saving family's 'honor', a father killed his own daughter in Gujarat's Banaskantha. As per an official statement by the police on Wednesday, 18-year-old has cracked National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). She was allegedly killed by her father and two uncles on June 24.
Danta division Assistant Superintendent of Police Suman Nala, the teen has quailed the exam with 'good marks.' 'She had given NEET a few months back, but it is still unclear if she wanted to become a doctor or a nurse. As per the results announced recently, she has cleared the test with good marks," Nala was quoted as saying by PTI.
To prepare for the NEET exam, the victim shifted to Palanpur town, and during that time, she got into a live-in relationship with a man.
Surprisingly, victim's death was first considered a natural death. However, her live-in partner, Haresh Chaudhary, filed a complaint at the Tharad police in the district on August 6. Based on the findings, booked the girl's father Sendhabhai Patel and uncle Shivrambhai Patel for the murder.
Girl's family was against her relationship and wanted to marry her elsewhere. Haresh told the police that he received a text from the victim that read, 'Come and get me; otherwise, my family will get me married against my will. If I don't agree to the marriage, they will kill me. Save me."
