The body of a young woman, packed in a red suitcase, was found near the Yamuna highway in the city of Mathura in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.
Police reported that the young woman’s autopsy revealed that she had scars on her head, face and other parts of her body, and that she died after being shot twice in the chest.
Police stated that the 22-year-old young woman was killed by her father after an argument over her marriage to a man from another caste, and the woman’s parents were detained.
Police say they are treating the case as an “honour killing”, as they confiscated the father’s licensed pistol and the vehicle allegedly used in the incident.
