A youth killed his cousin on wedding day on Sunday over a marriage feud and escaped from the scene of crime.
Police said that the accused was interested in his cousin but her parents arranged her marriage somewhere else due to which he was disgruntled with his uncle’s family.
The culprit opened fire at the bride when she was returning home from beauty parlour, few hours before starting her journey for in-laws’ house at Chakri Road, Rawalpindi.
The girl died on the spot and the murderer escaped from the scene of crime.
The body was shifted to the hospital for medico-legal formalities and the police after registering a case against the murderer started raids for his arrest.
