    “Iqbal gave her 10 rupees but she still kept following him and sat in the car with him. As the streets were deserted because of iftaar time, Iqbal parked his car at an isolated place and in a fit of rage choked his daughters throat first. Soon he realized about the gravity of the situation and thought of concealing the crime,’ SSP Kupwara said.

    To mislead police and frame someone else for the crime he slit the throat of the minor and dumped her body near a shed.

    “He went back to his home and on being asked about the girl’s whereabouts he feigned ignorance and filed a missing report in a police station,” SSP said.

    In the mean time Iqbal’s wife accompanied by the villagers found the body dumped near shed and soon mosques started reverberating with announcements of the same.

    SSP Kupwara further stated that father of the minor is the only accused who so far has emerged out in this case and the weapon used to commit crime has also been recovered. M Iqbal Khatana is under police custody and we will proceed further legally.
