Shambu as a brother. She works at a local beauty parlour and is enrolled for Class 12 as a private candidate.
Her elder sisters are married and she has a mother and 15-yearold brother to look after.
Shambu’s neighbours say that he was getting threats from Afrazul who also hailed from Sayadpur village because he had taken Anita away from a fellow Bengali. After he brought the girl back to Rajsamand, Bengali labourers had beaten him. Shambu fractured his hand in the attack, they claimed.
Shambu’s wife did not talk to the media.
A local court Friday sent a man, who allegedly hacked to death and burnt a Muslim migrant labourer from West Bengal in Rajasthan’s Rajsamand district, to three days in police custody.
“Shambhu Lal Regar was produced in the court of Chief Judicial Magistrate (CJM) of Rajsamand. The magistrate remanded him in three days police custody,” superintendent of police (SP) Manoj Kumar said.
The accused will be produced in the court on December 10 again, station house officer (SHO), Rajnagar, Ramsumer Meena said.
Shambu’s minor nephew, who had filmed the gruesome killing, has been sent to a juvenile home in Udaipur. The police are still investigating the matter and yet to find out the motive behind the crime, the SP added.
Shambhu was arrested Thursday morning from the house of his distant relative in Rajsamand’s Kelwa on Thursday morning. Speaking to television channels, he had claimed that the deceased was threatening to kill him and his family.
Regar had allegedly hacked to death and burnt Mohammed Afrazul. A video of the gruesome incident went viral on social media on Wednesday. In the video, Regar was purportedly seen raving against “love jihad”, and warning the ‘jihadis’.
