New Delhi: In a case of honour killing, a young man killed his sister over a relationship and later walked to the police station with the severed head of his sister, in UP’s Barabanki. He was arrested.
The incident took place in the Mithwara village in the Fatehpur area following an argument between Riyaz (22) and his sister Aashifa (18). Riyaz allegedly beheaded his sister with a sharp weapon and was on his way to the police station with her head in his hand when the police arrested him, Additional Superintendent of Police, Ashutosh Mishra told PTI.
