Three members of a family—a woman, her husband, and their two-year-old daughter—were killed by the woman’s father and brother on Tuesday in an alleged case of honour killing in Bihar’s Bhagalpur, police said on Wednesday.
The victims were identified as Chandni Kumari (23), Chandan Kumar (40), and Roshni Kumari (2), while the accused in the case have been identified as Pappu Singh and his son Dheeraj Kumar Singh, as PTI reported.
The incident occurred around 4:25 pm on Tuesday when the trio was returning to their residence in Navtolia village. Upon encountering them, Pappu Singh reportedly stopped and assaulted them with an iron rod until they lost consciousness. His son Dheeraj then shot them from point blank range.
Chandani’s father was reportedly unhappy about her marriage to Chandan Kumar three years ago.
“When Pappu Singh noticed them, he first stopped them and started hitting them with an iron road. They fell unconscious. According to family members of the deceased, Pappu’s son-Dheeraj Singh then shot them from point-blank range. All three died on the spot,” the police said in a statement.
