Man kills sister, her husband for 'honour'
Express News Service Posted online: Wed Feb 09 2011, 04:36 hrs
Kanpur : In a case of suspected honour killing in Farrukhabad district
of UP, Sanjay Verma allegedly murdered his sister Priya (21) and her
husband Nageem Sheikh alias Gudda on January 26. On Tuesday, police
arrested Sanjay, his brother-in-law Manoj Verma and domestic help
Umesh Yadav. Gaurav Verma and Titu Gupta, both friends of Sanjay who
were allegedly involved in the crime, are absconding.

A case of murder has been registered at the Kayamganj police station
of Farrukhabad. The revolver and car used in the murder have been
recovered by the police. Priya's body was recovered near river Kali
Nadi in Kannauj district on January 27. Nageem's body was reportedly
thrown into the river and is yet to be found.

Farrukhabad Superintendent of Police K Ejilearssane claimed, "It is a
case of honour killing, where the family members of a Hindu woman were
angry with her for marrying a Muslim man, and therefore they murdered
both."

Priya and Nageem were neighbours. When their efforts to convince their
families regarding their marriage failed, they ran away on January 19.
On the same day, Sanjay lodged an FIR against Nageem, accusing him of
kidnapping Priya and stealing jewelry worth Rs 40 lakh. Ejilearssane
said: "They got married on January 25." Sanjay reportedly caught them
on January 26 night and took them to Kali Nadi bridge. Ejilearssane
said: "Sanjay took the help of Manoj, Umesh, Gaurav and Titu." Station
Officer of Kayamganj V K Mishra said: "Sanjay had lodged a fake FIR
against Nageem. All three arrested have confessed."
