Minor boy opens fire at 16-year-old ‘girlfriend’ in Bengaluru, buries body with family’s help

A 16-year-old boy in Bengaluru, India, allegedly shot and killed his 16-year-old live-in girlfriend after discovering she was texting another boy on social media. The incident occurred on July 10 at the boy's home in Kempalanatha village. According to police, the boy assaulted the girl before using an old, homemade firearm to kill her. He then sought help from his brother and uncle to bury the body, attempting to cover up the crime. Rumors eventually led the girl's parents to file a missing persons report, prompting authorities to investigate. The body has not yet been exhumed, and the firearm, believed to belong to the boy's grandfather, is being examined. The police have arrested the boy, his brother, and uncle, and are investigating potential negligence from multiple parties.
