According to AP: Police say a man in Jaipur, India got upset over his daughter's lifestyle, chopped her head off  with a sword and then paraded it through his village before surrendering to  authorities in western India.
Marble miner Ogad Singh's 20-year-old daughter had been living with her  parents in the Rajasthani village of Dungarji after leaving her husband two  years ago.
Police Superintendent Umesh Ojha says Singh was upset by his daughter having  affairs with men, and became enraged when she eloped with one of them two weeks  ago.
Ojha says Singh forced her to return home yesterday, and beheaded her today  with a sword.
Rapidly modernizing India faces increasing social clashes as youths resist  traditions like arranged marriage or limits on women venturing outside their  parents' or husbands' homes.
