A heart-wrenching incident has come to light in Yellapur of Uttara Kannada district. Last Saturday, a young man brutally murdered a woman for refusing to marry her and ran away. The youth accused by the police was in love with the woman and murdered her when she refused to marry him.

According to the police, the deceased woman was Ranjeeta, a resident of Yellapur town. A young man named Rafiq was in love with Ranjita for the last few years. Ranjita was divorced about ten years ago and has a child. Ranjita lived with her parents and elder brother in Yellapur and worked as a food server in a government school.

A few months after the divorce, Rafiq and Ranjita became friends, which gradually turned into love. There were good relations between the two families also. Local people said that Rafiq often went to Ranjita's house to have dinner at night.

However, for the last few months, Rafiq was pressurizing Ranjita to marry him. Ranjita clearly opposed this and said that I have already seen many marriages. I don't want to marry again. Let our relationship remain as it is, but we will not marry.
