Indian woman murdered by her parents 

A 26-YEAR-OLD Indian woman has been strangled by her parents, who opposed her recent marriage to a young man of another caste, police say.

The killing happened on Sunday in Andhra Pradesh in southern India after the parents of the woman convinced the couple that they had accepted the marriage by saying they wanted the rituals carried out to complete the union.
The couple, who worked together at a computer company, wed last Friday in the regional capital of Hyderabad, and when they arrived at the village on Saturday, the young woman went to stay with her parents and her husband checked into a hostel, a police spokesman told the PTI news agency on condition of anonymity.
"Kiran Kumar - the bridegroom - tried to call his bride, P Deepthi, by mobile phone Sunday morning, but getting no answer, he alerted the police who broke down the door to the house and found the murdered woman on the bed," the police spokesman said.
The parents, who fled after committing the crime, were arrested on Monday in a neighbouring town, police superintendent Gopinath Jatti told PTI, adding that "both confessed to the crime".
In India, particularly in rural areas, arranged marriages are common, and the parents, in case their sons and daughters want to choose their partners, normally reject candidates of a different religion or caste.
