OMG!!! 17-years-old Girl Killed for Wearing a Jean Trouser


According to her mother, her teenage daughter was beaten to death by her family members merely because she wore jeans.

Neha Paswan, 17, was assassinated in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.

 Shakuntala Devi Paswan, Neha's mother, told BBC Hindi that a gang of religious males slaughtered her with sticks, including Neha's grandfather and uncles.

Amarnath, Neha's father, a construction worker who lives in another town, claimed he worked hard so that Neha and his other children could attend to school, just to later find his daughter murdered.

Neha walked downstairs wearing a pair of pants after following a day-long fast, according to her mother, Shakuntala.

Her grandfather objected to her costume choice, but Neha assured him that it was designed to be worn and that she would do so.

The violence ensued soon after, and Neha was savagely attacked by ten guys with sticks.

They disposed of the evidence after they were finished in order to conceal their awful crime.

They claimed Neha was transported to the hospital, but Shakuntala was stopped from accompanying her daughter to the hospital. She's not sure if Neha was brought to the hospital or not.

"They wouldn't allow me follow them," Neha's mother explained, "so I contacted my relatives, who went to the district hospital to seek for her but couldn't find her."


Her mother discovered Neha hanging from a bridge the next morning.

As the investigation continues, police have arrested and questioned four people, including Neha's grandfather and two uncles.

Her orthodox extended family put a lot of pressure on Neha to go to school and wear modern clothes.

Neha's death has sparked new debates in India concerning men's treatment of women.

"It's terrible that in the twenty-first century, we are killing and abusing girls for wearing jeans or talking on a cellphone," said gender campaigner Rolly Shivhare to the BBC.
