Parents murder daughter: Honor killings and class castes still a thing of the present

  • 9 years ago
This is Bhavna Yadav, age 21, an honors student at New Dehli University, a smart woman with a good future who came from a good family.

A family that ultimately murdered her.

This month, Bhavna married the man she loved in a secret ceremony, because she knew her family would disapprove. They disapproved for no reason other than the fact that he was Punjabi and of a lower caste than her family.

When the couple informed Bhavna’s family that they’d married, Bhavna’s parents beat her and told her to never come back. However, after a few days they seemed to relent and invited her to come home to discuss things.

Bhavna seemed happy that her parents were willing to reconcile but what actually happened at her childhood home was something from a nightmare. Bhavna’s parents strangled her to death, then took her body back to their home village and attempted to burn it.

When Bhavna’s husband was unable to contact her and her parents told him to stay away because he was a Punjabi, he finally called the police.

Under questioning Bhavna’s parents admitted to the murder and police are now investigating if it was an honor killing.
