UP Man Murders Sister Over Rs 6 Lakh Compensation, Claims Sack Holds Wheat
A man named Ram was angry because his family received money for land that was taken to build a road.
This money was meant for his sister Neelam's wedding.
Ram wanted some of the money for himself.
He ended up killing his sister, Neelam, by strangling her and breaking her bones.
He then put her body in a sack and took it on his motorcycle to a faraway sugarcane field to hide it.
When police stopped him, he lied and said the sack contained wheat.
Neighbors became suspicious when they saw Ram leaving with a large sack, which led the police to investigate.
They eventually found Neelam's body and Ram confessed to the crime.
A 32-year-old man in Uttar Pradesh, Ram Ashish Nishad, allegedly murdered his 19-year-old sister, Neelam.
The motive was a dispute over Rs 6 lakh compensation money their father received for acquired land.
Ram strangled Neelam, broke her limbs, and stuffed her body into a sack.
He transported the body on his bike to Kushinagar, about 70 km away, and dumped it in a sugarcane field.
