Girl's father kills lover, throws body in river
I P Singh, TNN, Feb 22, 2011, 03.26am IST
KAPURTHALA: In a case of honour killing, the father of a girl
allegedly killed her lover, who was from a so-called lower caste, and
threw his body in river Beas, early this month.
The accused, who has been arrested, reportedly told the police that he
killed the boy to "save the honour of his family". The girl belonged
to Jat community while the boy was from Valmiki community, which made
the affair unacceptable to the girl's father.
According to police sources, the victim, Sandeep Singh, 20, of
Choladha village, who was a cop in Punjab police and a promising
Kabaddi player, had gone missing on February 6. He was to fly to
Malaysia for a kabaddi tournament on February 14. Later his family
learnt that he was kidnapped by the girl's father Balwinder Singh of
neighbouring Lakh Waryan village.
The girl, Karamdeep Kaur, is a student of BA part-II, while the youth
had given up his studies after plus two.
"Sandeep was preparing for his tournament when he went missing. We
kept searching him, but failed," said Balkar Singh, uncle of the
youth. He said that Sandeep and Karamdeep, who were class-fellows, had
been having an affair since their school days.
"When Balwinder was rounded up and questioned on Monday he confessed
to his crime," said SHO, Kabirpur, Narinder Pal Singh Aujla. He said
that efforts were on to search for the body. Call details of Sandeep's
mobile phone revealed that the last call made from his phone was to
the girl's cell phone.
