A 13-year marriage in Rampur, Uttar Pradesh, ended in murder after a woman refused to sell land she inherited from her parents. Police arrested her husband, Israr, who confessed to electrocuting her, including on her private parts, out of anger over the land. The post-mortem report confirmed multiple burn injuries from electric shocks at six places on the body, including private parts, said Additional Superintendent of Police Anurag Singh. The victim's family alleged Israr had repeatedly threatened to kill her if she did not sell the land. The couple had four daughters and a son. The victim's sister said Nasreen had hidden earlier injuries. A case was registered based on a complaint by her uncle, who also accused the in-laws of involvement. Israr remains in custody.
