A painful incident of honour killing has come to light from the Bahraich district in Uttar Pradesh where a person named Naeem brutally murdered his 17-year-old daughter Khushboo in the name of honour. He first severed her head and then cut the body into several pieces after he reportedly became aware of her love affair. Naeem repeatedly tried to convince Khushboo to snap ties with her boyfriend but she didn’t comply. The crime was committed on 2nd September.
The police, who arrived there at the information of the villagers, arrested the accused Naeem. They collected the body parts and sent them for postmortem. They also recovered the murder weapon from the spot. The matter pertains to the Laxmanpur Matehi village of the Motipur police station area. The victim was in a romantic relationship with a boy of the same village. She had already eloped with him twice. Naeem had also filed a case against his daughter’s lover in Motipur and Nanpara police stations. The authorities had even sent the youth to jail during the investigation.
On the fateful morning, Naeem spotted his daughter in conversation with her boyfriend, due to which he lost his temper and killed her outside their residence. He continued to sit beside his daughter’s corpse after ending her life. Senior police officials also visited the location due to the sensitive situation. Statements of the deceased’s mother were also recorded. She was at her maternal home during the crime.
According to the police, the issue is being thoroughly investigated and appropriate action will be taken moving forward. Circle Officer Hira Lal Kanaujia provided additional details on the issue and stated that the girl had run away with her boyfriend numerous times. The boy belonged to the Mangta community. A First Information Report was also filed against him in two police stations. Naeem has three more daughters and he claimed that the love affair was making a negative impact on his other children. He said they had to face humiliation in the village due to which he was forced to take the extreme step.
Superintendent of Police (Rural) Pavitra Mohan Tripathi mentioned, “A case has been registered against Naeem. The father said that his daughter had run away from home twice and he suspected that she might do it again. Due to this apprehension, he killed his daughter.”
