Doubting minor daughter’s conduct, man throws her into Ferozepur Feeder canal

In a shocking act of violence, a man tied his minor daughter’s hands and threw her into the Ferozepur Feeder canal. The entire incident was videographed by the accused on his mobile which has gone viral on social media.

As per information, the accused Surjit Singh, a resident of Housing Board Colony in the city area, had doubts about his 17-year-old daughter Preet Kaur’s conduct and used to beat her also.

On Tuesday night, at around 8.40 pm, he took away Preet on his bike to the canal and tied her hands with a scarf and threw her into the canal.

The police arrested the accused under Sections 302 of the IPC following a complaint lodged by Sahil Chauhan, nephew of the deceased, who was keeping track of the man that night.

Confessing to the crime, accused Surjit said his daughter “did not obey him and brought disgrace to his family due to her conduct.” That is why he threw her into the canal, he added.

SSP Bhupinder Singh said the matter was brought to the notice of the police by relatives of the deceased, following which investigation was conducted and the accused nabbed.

“A team of divers is searching for the body, but has not been found it,” said the SSP.
