The 17-year-old girl had eloped with her 19-year-old boyfriend from her village in Uttar Pradesh a few months ago.
They allegedly wed in a temple in Mumbai and he took up a job of a labourer.
According to reports in ToI, the girl’s father, 45, tracked them down two weeks ago and confronted them.
The father along with his friend forcibly took his daughter, who was four months pregnant by then, to the friend’s house.
But when the girl refused to return to the village, in a fit of rage, the father pulled her out into the nearby jungle and raped her. Then he asked his friend also to rape her in order “to teach her a lesson for tarnishing his family name”, police is quoted as saying.
Later, fearing she would report the matter, the duo strangled her with her dress and left her body in the open.
The following day they returned to confirm if she was dead and hid her body in the bush.
The incident came to light, when the father in a drunken state, mentioned about raping and killing his daughter to a waiter in a restaurant, who in turn told his boss. The latter alerted police.
The duo has been arrested. They led police to the decomposed body.
Police are on the lookout for the girl’s boyfriend.

What honour are this idiots talking about. This guys don't have enough food on the table and they are talking stupid things like family honour. First provide for the family and keep them happy instead of finding stupid ideas to do away with them

n1v9n: There are already laws in place. What is lacking is educating the masses and enforcing the laws.
n1, you are late , nobdy has cared about it till now. But you have a politician in you. LOL.
I'm gonna run for Prime minister. So that I can
1) Ban honor killings.
2) Award death sentences for crimes such as these .
3) Declare victim blaming punishable under the law.
4) Increase the punishment for women abuse.
5) Pass a law to imprison all who support the acts of ruthless criminals.
I pity the wives and daughters of monsters like these men who have to control (I mean "protect") them. They are truly sick people. But they were no doubt raised by fathers who were just as mentally deranged as they are, so they deserve some pity.
Thankfully the world is changing and women are slowly being given the chance to act like thinking adults, not as live in cleaners and baby making machines.
Brit, These are repeat cases .. most public knows about how it might have been originated & how would it end ........ Fri, 08.11.2013, 10.08 hrs ...
Sometimes "viewing from all angles" can makes you lose focus on the reality.

It makes you stand out from among all of us. Cheers my buddy.
R2R, Correct .That's very basic for a balanced society to remember all good deeds of others towards us. ....

What is wrong in questioning whether or not this is the first time he raped her? I highly doubt it is. The man is an violent alcoholic, no wonder she ran away.
I see that there are plenty of people who are still living in the dark ages both on QL and some of India.
No one condone what the reason first Rape and then Murder..people who do have similar minds to the perperators!

No wonder she eloped Fatima, if that's the kind of dad she had. If it were me I would have gotten out of that house as soon as I possibly could! I find it hard to believe that that was the first time he raped her.

I guess it is agreed by all that MM still needs to crawl out of the cave he dwells in when it comes to treating a woman fairly. For him a woman's place is in a steel chamber with lock and key and without any opening for even air. Once she walks out of that chamber she is the reason for anything that goes wrong in this world. I dont think he even deserves to be acknowledged on such issues leave aside responding to him. He will never grow up cos basically civilisation is lost on him.
Then it's your priority either peaceful life & respect in your culture / society or an extreme step of running away from the parents who gave you birth , raised to be a responsible citizen .... by deceiving them for no fault of theirs ..... Thu, 07.11.2013, 11.30 hrs

Brit, In a wrong course of path everything is wrong but considered right by the persons who are actually involved in it .....
Yes for a minute if we say what father had done is wrong but again what father had done is a reaction of his daughter's action ... that's where the root is ... Thu, 07.11.2013, 11.14 hrs

MM: "Now father is ready to face the consequences which are basically not of his own making ".. I am sorry, but I cannot understand how you can say this. His actions are of his own making. We can assume that the young girl made a mistake, but he is an adult and most importantly her father.

Smacks head against wall. Some people have their heads buried so far in the sand it's incredible.

Seriously Prize? You're defending a rapist and murderer?
Dont understand what mistake the boy and girl made. None IMO. If they are not allowed to live together by their family members they have all the right to leave there homes...call it eloped, ran away etc etc it doesnt change the fact that they wanted to be together at a place where they feel they can be safe. Father's actions, no comments... it is beyond my understanding that a father can do such a thing. Just wish he gets the harshest of the punishments.
Kat, that is more than necessary to say about her father .
My thinking exactly Kat. I mean I have read of plenty of so called honor killings before of parents killing their own children, and whilst they were all evil and dishonorable, non of them did what this man did which is to rape his daughter and get a friend to do the same.. Sick!
No wonder she eloped Fatima, if that's the kind of dad she had. If it were me I would have gotten out of that house as soon as I possibly could! I find it hard to believe that that was the first time he raped her.
If girl made one mistake father made two.
Right on Kat! As a mother of a daughter who also happens to be my only child, I cannot imagine the psyche of a parent not only raping his child, but getting a friend to do it as well. In fact the murder was only committed to cover up the rapes. Is this the actions of a morally upright father? Can you imagine then what kind of upbringing the girl must have had!
I really don't see how eloping justifies rape and murder, and anyone who thinks it does is one sick puppy.
brit...now ur point is justified...actions of father was totally wrong...i did not get the point of raping also...but why it happened...it mentions drunk state
MM: I agree that culturally, what the girl and boy did was wrong. However, this does not justify the actions of the father -
BOXBE, My brother, you are 100 % right. People just take the news as it has happened to somebody else so don't have inner feelings towards the whole incident and disdain the major points to avoid such killings. ...

BOXBE, If they considered it ' publicly right ' thing to do then what made them flee from their own parents' place ? ...... Thu, 07.11.2013, 09.53 hrs
everything expect in india
so by raping and allowing someone else to do the same, this 'father' was trying to bring back his family's lost honor. this guy should be hanged, not just imprisoned.
MM...ur right...but no one is going to understand that in qatar living
Brit, Statistics / experience tell that boys { of similar kind } would run away from the responsibility in max 7 years.
Mods...i did not attack any one.....it was to the topic and not for any personal related to qlers

Inna Lillahi Wa Inna Ilaihi Rajioon. A truly sickening crime and goes to show just how messed up and demonic these so called honor killings are!
What I find strange is why the Police are on the lookout for the girl’s boyfriend ?
BOXBE: Yes, they did wrong by running away. But they got married and were trying to live a life as husband and wife. The fault lies squarely with the idiot father.
What the hell I just read!!!!

Bad father; Bad daughter; Bad boyfriend...everything is bad here..All that starts bad ends bad

Too bad for a human being to do a extreme thing like it.
