Valentine's Day moral policing in Kerala claims life

Days after being shamed in a video by moral police on Valentine's Day, a 23-year-old son of a daily wage labourer was found hanging dead outside his house in Kerala's Kollam district.

Aneesh and his female companion were subjected to moral policing by a group of men at Azheekkal beach who not only browbeat them but also videotaped their shaming. In the video, the couple can be heard pleading the men to let them go.

The accused even asked the girl if she would lift her dress for anyone.
