Daughter Murdered with an Ax
According to reports, Neha went to meet her lover in the fields around 2 am on Monday night. At that time, all the members of the house were asleep. Neha's father, Indrapal Baghel, woke up and did not find his daughter on the cot. While searching for his daughter, he reached the fields and saw Neha there with her lover in a compromising position. Due to anger and feeling violated, Indrapal picked up an ax and attacked Neha's neck, causing the teenager to die on the spot.
Immediately after the incident, Indrapal fled. On Tuesday morning, villagers found Neha's body in the field and informed the police. The police arrived at the scene, completed the paperwork, and sent the body for post-mortem examination.
Search for the Body and Police Action
On Tuesday morning, villagers found Neha's body in the field and informed the police. The police arrived at the scene, completed the paperwork, and sent the body for post-mortem examination. In the initial report, the cause of death was stated as unknown, and a case was registered against an unknown person based on the complaint filed by Neha's father.
The police formed two teams to solve the murder mystery. During interrogation, Indrapal tried to mislead the police, but under strict questioning, he confessed to his crime. The ax used in the murder was also recovered at the behest of the accused father. After completing the legal formalities, Indrapal was sent to jail.
Atmosphere of Fear in the Village
Neha's murder has created a stir in Nagla Jat village. Villagers said that they never expected such violence. The incident has reignited discussions about honor killings and young love affairs throughout the area.
Villagers said that Neha was bright in her studies and had never been involved in any kind of dispute. However, a love affair in her personal life led to this tragic incident.
Honor Killing and a Message for Society
This case once again highlights the serious social aspect of honor killings. Many families still interfere in the personal lives of children under traditional thinking and commit violence in the name of 'family honor.' Such steps only endanger the lives of young people and create an atmosphere of fear and insecurity in society.
Experts say that it is important to respect the individual freedom and decisions of young people. Family anger and violence only lead to sorrow and crime.
Swift Action by the Police
The swift and effective action of the police is being appreciated throughout the district. Catching the murderer and solving the mystery of the incident in just eight hours demonstrates the promptness of the administration. ASP Trigun Basin said in a conversation with the media that the cooperation of the villagers played an important role in resolving this case quickly.
