"If he had told me, I would have married him (Ankit) to the girl of his choice," said father in an exclusive conversation with ABP News on Monday.
Ankit Saxena, a professional photographer-cum-artist, was stabbed to death on Thursday night in west Delhi's Khyala area. The girl's family opposed her relationship with Ankit Saxena as the two belonged to different communities, said the police, reported news agency PTI.
The police arrested the woman's father, mother, uncle and her minor brother in connection with Saxena's killing.
