शारीरिक कमी के कारण हत्या: दामाद के भाई ने चाकू से मार डाला

Guntur(AP): In a shocking incident, a man was murdered by his brother-in-law in Bapatla district’s Vemuru mandal, Yedavuru village, reportedly because he was short in height. Kurra Ganesh from Yedavuru village had gone with his family to Tenali to see a prospective bride, Keerthi Anjani Devi, who was also a distant relative. The girl’s parents rejected the match, saying Ganesh was short. However, Ganesh and Keerthi liked each other at first sight. They exchanged phone numbers and started talking regularly. As their bond grew stronger, they decided to get married despite family opposition. The couple eloped and got married at a temple in Amaravati just ten days ago. Keerthi’s brother, Durgarao, was furious, accusing Ganesh of deceiving his sister into marriage because of her affection for him. Ganesh, fearing for his life, had approached the Nallapadu police, saying he faced a threat from the bride’s family. The sad thing was while Ganesh was on his way to arrange money for a grand wedding reception having pledged gold at a bank Durgarao attacked him brutally with a knife in the middle of the road, killing him on the spot. Police later arrested Durgarao and his friends. During interrogation, Durgarao confessed that he killed Ganesh because he was short and had lured his sister into marriage against the family’s wishes. Ganesh Grandmother said "girl is too high than you she is not suitable for you and let's see some other.. but he didn't listen my words, without my knowledge they got married." she said. Poojitha sister of deceased said "my brother is innocent his wife convinced him by saying I'll die for you and finally my brother was stabbed by his brother in law, he also complained in PS that he had a threat from 3 brothers of bride's family." she said.
