Woman sets daughter on fire after fight over inter-caste marriage, both die
In a horrific incident, a woman poured kerosene on her daughter and set her on ablaze in Shadnagar, Hyderabad, for wanting to marry a man from another caste. However, during the incident, the mother also received severe burns and both mother and daughter succumbed while undergoing treatment on August 19.
The mother and daughter have been identified as Chandrakala and Sravanthi respectively. Sravanthi had fallen in love with a man from the same locality, but he belonged to another caste, which was unacceptable for her parents. This led to several heated arguments between Sravanthi and her parents.
Recently before the incident, both mother and daughter got involved in another argument, as Sravanthi asked for her parents consent for the marriage. Her father, who was present there during the argument, gave her a bottle of kerosene and angrily told her to either forget the boyfriend or kill herself.
Snatching the kerosene from her daughter’s hand in rage, Chandrakala poured it on Sravanthi and set her ablaze. However, the splash of kerosene on Chandrakala unexpectedly caught fire and she suffered severe burns along with her daughter. According to the police, both mother and daughter suffered 80 per cent burns and succumbed on Wednesday during treatment.

In the most unbelievable incident ever, four men were arrested for allegedly raping a Bengal monitor lizard in Sahyadri Tiger Reserve (STR). The reserve is spread over four districts of Satara, Sangli, Kolhapur and Ratnagiri in Maharashtra.
The gruesome incident took place at Gothane village in Ratnagiri district on March 31 when the four accused illegally entered Chandoli National Park (part of the reserve). One of the four was also carrying a gun for hunting.
The Maharashtra Forest Department checked the mobile phone of one of the accused and that’s when he learnt about the incident. The officials found the recording of the act, which showed the accused allegedly gang-raping the monitor lizard.
A forest official said the four accused were identified as Sandeep Tukaram Pawar, Mangesh Kamtekar, Akshay Kamtekar and Ramesh Ghag.
The official said, “During the investigation, the forest officials found that the accused had allegedly raped a Bengal monitor lizard. Their act was also recorded in a mobile phone of one of the accused persons. We have recovered all the related evidence from the accused and they were granted forest department custody initially, but are out on bail now. They have been asked to mark their presence before the forest officer, who is probing the case, every Monday.”
“The four accused have been booked under various sections of the Wild Life (Protection) Act, 1972,” said field director of Sahyadri Tiger Reserve (STR), Nanasaheb Ladkat.
