Honour killing: Man kills daughter for marrying lover Pawan Bali CNN-IBN FATHER KILLS DAUGHTER: Police say the man committed the murder to save family's pride. Akhnoor: In yet another case of honour killing, a father in Jammu poisoned and then strangulated his 22-year-old daughter to death for marrying a Dalit boy. In a secret Arya Samaj wedding in April last year Seema Sharma – a Brahmin girl – got married to the Dalit boy – Tarsem Lal. Though the marriage was kept as a secret for sometime, Seema finally told her father about it earlier this month when her marriage was fixed with someone else. Seema’s father managed the situation by getting her younger sister married to the boy fixed for Seema but on the same night he allegedly killed her. “The father has said that he poisoned the daughter and then as she didn’t die of the poison he strangulated her to death,” says SSP Jammu Manohar Singh. Police say the father committed the murder to save his family from dishonour because he didn’t want his daughter to live with a Dalit boy. “Out of anger and for his respect he says he killed her,” adds the SSP. Seema's husband Tarsem was hospitalised after he attempted suicide. ------------------------------------ ---- INFORMATION OVERLOAD?
