Preliminary investigations suggest that the woman and her family had been in constant conflict over the issue, with the family insisting on the marriage. The woman, however, refused as she wanted to continue her education and had no interest in marrying an older man.
Police rushed to the scene after receiving a call early Thursday morning but found the woman dead on arrival. She had severe damage to her skull and internal bleeding in the lungs.

The woman’s family members have been held in custody for further interrogation, and police have referred the case to public prosecution for further investigation.
