Bengaluru: A 21-year-old young woman’s body was found in a lake in Karnataka on Wednesday officials said.
Official sources said that the Hebbagodi police have registered a case and are investigating the case.
According to police, Sahana, the victim’s body was suspiciously found in the Huskur Lake near Anekal town on the outskirts of Bengaluru. It was claimed that while she was riding pillion on the scooter with her father Rammurthy, the vehicle plunged into the lake.
However, the lover Nitin has alleged that Sahana’s father, not bothering to rescue his daughter, reached straight to the police station.
Nitin alleged that Sahana became a victim of honour killing.
Nitin and Sahana were in a relationship for a year. The parents of Sahana had come to know about the love affair two days ago. Sahana’s father had called Nitin for a discussion at his friend’s place.
During the discussion, Rammurthy had allegedly assaulted his daughter and maintained that he wouldn’t approve of his daughter’s relationship at any cost.
Rammurthy had not agreed even as Nitin’s mother had pleaded with him to agree for the love marriage. He had sought two days’ time with them.
It is alleged that the victim’s father had pushed Sahana into the lake and killed her.
Police said that Sahana was adamant about marrying Nitin. But, her family was planning to marry her to one of the relatives. Sahana had strongly opposed it and quarrelled with her father.
The police stated that they are awaiting the post-mortem report and have taken up the matter for investigation.
