"Chandra Mohan later reached the Thariyaon police station on a two-wheeler. Swati's body has been sent for post mortem examination" said Anil Kumar.
Chandra Mohan told the police that he had resorted to the extreme step as he was fed up with his married daughter's deeds.
"The deceased woman's mother and brother were found to be missing from the house soon after the incident. We have launched a hunt to locate their whereabouts. We are also questioning the deceased's woman in-laws," said the circle officer.
