The naked bodies of a young couple were found stuffed in boxes in India after becoming victims of a suspected honor killing.

Locals discovered the dead pair, believed to be in their mid to late 20s, in separate metal trunks in a public park in Haryana state, around 30 miles south of New Delhi.

Police said the man’s legs had been chopped off and put inside the trunk, while his partner was found wearing a set of glass bangles traditionally worn by newlywed women.

‘It appears they were strangulated and dumped here later. They are yet to be identified,’ the chief investigating officer, Praveen Kumar, told AFP.
‘It seems like a case of honor killing because the woman is wearing wedding bangles but we are not ruling out other motives,’ he added.

It is an interesting detail that the boxes are matching and of very nice quality. Seems the killer should have measured the gentleman for his coffin prior to killing him for a more comfortable fit!

A most excellent post! Thank you!!

I wonder if she is pregnant. She has the dark vertical line on her belly, a sign of pregnancy.
