Ludhiana: A year-and-a-half-old love affair in Ludhiana ended in a shocking case of alleged honour killing after a young man was kidnapped and beaten to death by the family members of his girlfriend.<\/p>\n
According to police, the girl\u2019s family had earlier warned the couple several times and even took the matter to a village panchayat, but the two continued meeting each other. The family later married the woman off elsewhere, but her relationship with the youth allegedly continued, eventually leading to her divorce.<\/p>\n
After the woman returned to her parental home, the couple reportedly met again, which enraged her family.<\/p>\n
Police said the woman\u2019s brother, along with other relatives, allegedly abducted the youth and assaulted him inside a moving car for nearly 12 kilometres. The victim was reportedly beaten so brutally that he died inside the vehicle itself.<\/p>\n
To mislead investigators, the accused allegedly dumped the body near a roadside wall and crashed the victim\u2019s scooter against the wall to make the murder appear like a road accident.<\/p>\n
However, police became suspicious after noticing multiple injury marks on the body, which led to the exposure of the entire murder plot.<\/p>\n
Police have arrested the woman\u2019s brother, described as the mastermind behind the killing, while raids are underway to trace the other accused relatives involved in the crime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
