A father in India is facing murder charges after he invited his daughter’s alleged rapist to dinner and then tortured and killed the man, authorities say.
The 36-year-old father, who has not been identified, reportedly burned the 45-year-old man’s genitals with heated tongs and strangled him Friday, according to The Indian Express. The incident occurred in Delhi’s Khajuri Khas area.
In a statement to police, the father told authorities that two months ago, while he was away at work, a medicine supplier came to his home, found his 14-year-old daughter alone, and allegedly raped her.
The father said he did not approach police fearing “a bad name for his daughter,” but instead had been planning the murder of the alleged rapist.
After the man was killed, the father went to a local police station, surrendered himself and gave police details about what happened, The Indian Express reports.
“The father called the medicine supplier over to his house saying he wanted to discuss some issue. He served him dinner,” an officer told the newspaper. “After the meal, the father overpowered the man and tied him to a chair. He got heated tongs and burned the supplier’s genitals before strangling him to death.”
