After being apprehended by the authorities, the young man who allegedly burned a woman, 19, to death in India for allegedly rejecting his proposal was seen grinning.The woman, a college student, initially survived despite having 90% of her body burned, but on Sunday she passed away from her injuries.
Shahrukh, the accused, is seen grinning casually in a video that just appeared online while being shackled.His “shameless smile” has drawn the ire and displeasure of social media users.The district administration had to implement Section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), which forbids the gathering of four or more, in order to uphold peace and order amid protests for the young woman’s justice.
According to reports, Shahrukh attacked the woman while she slept in her house. From a distance, he doused her in gasoline and set her ablaze.He called her more than a week ago and asked her to be his friend, the victim said in an extremely difficult-to-pronounce statement she provided to an executive magistrate.He threatened to kill her if she continued to reject.
