Rajyasabha MP arrested for a dowry death

No one seems to be free from the greed of dowry. In the latest incident, a Rajya Sabha MP from the BSP party has found to be guilty in harassing his daughter in law to bring more dowry. Himanshi Kashyap, daughter in law of BSP MP Narendra Kashyap, was found dead yesterday. She was shot dead in the house of honourable MP in Gaziabad (Uttar Pradesh). Though the family of MP claims the incident to be a suicide, police has found prima facie evidence to consider this incident as a result of dowry harassment. Whether Himanshi has killed herself, or whether someone has shot her... the motive seems to the demand for additional dowry.
Narendra along with his wife and son were arrested yesterday and a case has been filed to include all his siblings in the case. The victim's father, also a BSP leader, has alleged that his daughter, who was 8 months pregnant was tortured and gunned down over dowry by her in laws. It seems that her in laws have been torturing her to bring ‘Toyota Fortuner’- a luxury car as additional dowry. The certainly deserved the Police Jeep!
