(Pakistan) A young couple in Pakistan were tied up and had their throats slit after they married for love. The 17-year-old girl and 31-year-old man married on June 18 without the consent of their families in eastern Pakistan’s Punjabi village of Satrah.
The girl's mother and father lured the couple home late on Thursday with the promise that their marriage would receive a family blessing. When the couple reached there, they tied up them with ropes and her father cut their throats.
Police arrested the family who said they had been embarrassed by the marriage of their daughter to a man from a less important tribe.
