Police say a man upset over his daughter’s lifestyle chopped her head off with a sword and then paraded it through his village before surrendering to authorities in western India.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Marble miner Ogad Singh’s 20-year-old daughter had been living with her parents in the Rajasthani village of Dungarji after leaving her husband two years ago.<\/p>\n

Police Superintendent Umesh Ojha says Singh was upset by his daughter having affairs with men, and became enraged when she eloped with one of them two weeks ago.<\/p>\n

Ojha says Singh forced her to return home Sunday, and beheaded her Monday with a sword.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rapidly modernizing India faces increasing social clashes as youths resist traditions like arranged marriage or limits on women venturing outside their parents’ or husbands’ homes.<\/p>\n

Geez! How many of us would have had our head cut off by now?<\/strong><\/p>\n
