Dalit youth killed in suspected honour killing

Sultanpurlodhi (Pb), Feb 21 (PTI) In a suspected case of honour
killing, a Dalit kabaddi player was allegedly murdered here by the
father of the upper cast girl he was in a relationship with, a senior
police officer said today.
Sandeep Singh, in his early twenties, was allegedly murdered by
Balwinder Singh at their house in Lakhwarian village on the night of
February 6, Deputy SP Gurmeet Singh said.
A case was registered today against Balwinder under various sections
of the IPC including 302 (murder) and it is suspected that the
victim''s body was thrown in the Beas river, the DSP said, adding that
the body is yet to be recovered.
Balwinder today surrendered in the court of the judicial magistrate
here and was remanded to police custody, he said.
Sandeep''s father Amreek Singh, a resident of Chuladha village, had
lodged a complaint with the police stating that his son was missing
since February 6 and he feared that he had been killed as he had a
relationship with a girl belonging to the predominant Jat community.
The DSP said the victim had gone to the girl''s house on the night of
February 6, where her parents found the two in objectionable
circumstances and he was killed with lethal weapons.
Balwinder''s interrogation was under progress, he said, adding, the
girl is missing from her house and it is suspected that the parents
have sent her to their relative''s house. PTI Cor SUN DKS
