Man Beheads Minor Fiancee After Engagement Stopped by Authorities

Authorities stopped engagement ceremony. Prakash, 32, beheaded underage fiancee. Police search operation underway.

A 16-year-old girl was allegedly beheaded by the man she was set to marry on Thursday, hours after authorities stopped their engagement ceremony in Karnataka's Madikeri.

32-year-old Prakash was set to marry the girl, who cleared her Class 10 exams yesterday, at Surlabbi village in Madikere.

However, someone informed the Commission for Protection of Child Rights about the illegal ceremony, and a team from the commission reached the venue and ordered the families to stop the ceremony as the girl was underage and could not be married.
