Cops: Dad beheads daughter, parades head around town

6/18/2012

A dad in Jaipur, India, was unhappy with his daughter's behavior, so he reportedly sliced off her head Monday with a sword and paraded it around his village, say police. You know, as a self-appointed arbiter of good behavior and all. Ogad Singh's 20-year-old daughter had been living at the family home for the last two years after leaving her husband. Two weeks ago, the adult woman (did we mention she was 20?) had the audacity to elope with a new man, enraging her monstrous-sounding father. He lured her back home, unsheathed his sword and executed her. After spending the day showing off what he'd done, he surrendered (finally) to police.
