An Instagram friendship turned deadly in Kanpur when 18-year-old Aman Sonkar attempted to strangle a woman who had rejected his marriage proposal. The two met online, but the woman distanced herself after learning of Sonkar’s criminal background. Over the past year, he repeatedly threatened her and her family, demanding marriage. On Friday, he lured her to a park by threatening to leak her private photos. When she refused again, he tried to strangle her with her dupatta. Bystanders intervened, and Sonkar fled. A video of the attack went viral. An FIR has been lodged under Sections 351(2) and 115(2) of the Bharat Nyay Sanhita, though Sonkar remains absconding. The chilling words he left behind: “Agar tum meri nahi ho sakti, toh mein tumhe kisi aur ki bhi nahi hone dunga (If you cannot be mine, I will not let you be anyone else's)".
