In a shocking case of honour killing, two brothers allegedly strangled their 30-year-old married sister to death in Gautam Budh Nagar district of Uttar Pradesh. They dumped her body in a river as they were offended by the fact that their sister used to drink alcohol and was, according to them, loose in her character.
Deputy Commissioner of Police (Central Noida) Rambadan Singh said a body of a woman was found floating in Hindon river on March 13 after which the police began probing the matter.
“Prima facie it looked like a case of murder and the postmortem report of the woman also proved it,” the DCP said.
