Manju (20) was married three years back. She was not living with her husband and allegedly had illicit relations with other men, police said today.
She was caught with a man only a few days back. Her father Ogad was disturbed with her activities.
Last evening, Ogad beheaded Manju in Dungerji Ka Guda village in Charbhuja area of the district when both of them were alone at home.
He then walked outside the home with the severed head in one hand and the bloodstained sword in the other, and surrendered at the Gomti police outpost under Kelva police station.
The man was arrested and the body shifted to a local hospital for postmortem, the police added.
