Kolkata: In what appears to be an act of honour killing, a man in West Bengal's Nadia district allegedly shot dead a teenager for being in a relationship with his daughter, police said on Sunday.
Sajir had fallen in love with Rafiqul's daughter, who is a class 10 student, but Rafiqul never accepted the relationship.
On Saturday evening, Sajir had come outside Rafiqul's house to meet the girl.
"He had come to meet me. Then he was shot from behind by my father. He killed him because we loved each other," said the girl.
