A 17-year-old girl, Inderpreet Kaur, was killed in Dhoot Kalan village in Hoshiarpur district, and her father, Amarjit Singh, is accused of the murder and has fled, according to police. The incident occurred while Inderpreet was alone with her father; her mother, Baljit Kaur, found her daughter's body when she returned home.

The victim’s body was taken into custody and sent for postmortem examination. Neighbours alerted the police after hearing cries from the house, and officials including SHO Gurcharan Singh and police post in-charge Ajmer Singh reached the scene to begin the investigation.
