The incident occurred on Tuesday evening and the accused Firoz Kadarbhai was arrested just few hours later. Firoz will be produced before the court on Wednesday.
Rehnaben Sakaryani lodged a complaint with Dhoraji police stating that she and her 14-year-old daughter Yasmin were cooking food at their residence when her son Firoz came along with Faizan and started quarrelling with Yasmin asking her why she talks to Faizan.
“Before I and Faizan could stop Firoz, he slapped Yasmin, repeatedly stabbed her and fled the scene,” Rehnaben Sakaryani said.
Yasmin was rushed to government hospital, where she was declared brought dead.
