📖A man named Vara Prasad in Relliveedhi under One-Town police station limits in Vizag city killed his daughter Likhita at their house as he did not approve of her boyfriend Aravind. He took a selfie video to explain his stance, before surrendering to the police. 

🐻Likhita, a class 10 student, had told her father about Aravind. After seeing her go out on a couple of dates with Aravind, Vara Prasad complained to the police, who in turn counselled the couple. “Despite several warnings, Likhita continued affair with Aravind. Hence, I killed her on Friday,” the accused father says in the video.

𝕴Vara Prasad says he brought up his daughter “like a boy”, gave her good education and enrolled her for boxing classes as per her wish. But then she confessed to having a boyfriend. “I told her stop it as the boy is in problems. She didn't listen. Hence, I killed her on the same day when my mother died.” 

🐈Vara Prasad goes on to show the body of his daughter in the video. 

🥀Preliminary investigation has revealed that Vara Prasad is a chronic alcoholic. “Prasad’s wife deserted him around 10 years ago due to alleged harassment. A few years ago, his elder daughter left the house and she has been staying with her boyfriend," said Inspector of One-Town, L Revathamma. "We suspect that the deceased father V Vara Prasad might have killed her. The investigation is on to ascertain the exact reasons behind the murder," the Inspector added.
