Beti Bachao campaign is being shamed by some Daughters of India, where they are going to any extent if their demands are not met. While many have been striking at their husbands and in-laws with fake cases, some are not even sparing their own parents. 

A shocking case of double murder has been reported from Kanpur, where an elderly couple was found dead on Tuesday morning. The police has arrested their daughter in connection with these murders. 

Case: Munna Lal Uttam (62) and his wife Raj Devi (55) were murdered with their throats slit. Their bodies were recovered from separate rooms on the ground oor of their house on Tuesday morning. The couple lived with their son Anoop and adopted daughter Komal.

Initially, Anoop suspected involvement of his wife Akanksha and in-laws in his parents’ murder, as all was not well between them. In his complaint, Anoop alleged that a family dispute was going on with his wife and his brother-in-law Mayank. He went on to further allege that his wife’s family members had demanded Rs 50 lakh from them. 

Thus, Anoop had accused his brother-in-law and a samosa seller of the area of his parents’ murder. 

Joint Police Commissioner Anand Kulkarni earlier informed media that prima facie it appeared that the couple had been murdered using a sharp weapon. 

The dead bodies were sent for postmortem

Rahul Uttam, who is posted with the Army in Mumbai – along with his brother hatched the conspiracy to kill her parents

Police informed media, that the couple had physical relations before the murder. When the boyfriend’s brother hesitated in executing the murder, the daughter herself took charge and murdered her parents

Komal was also planning to kill her brother Anoop, but later dropped the plan. The accused woman had decided to murder her parents and implicate her brother in the matter.

During the initial interrogation, Komal had said that she had seen three masked men running away from the house. Komal had also accused her sister-in-law’s brother of killing her parents
