Chilling moment jilted lover stalks ex-fiancee & new boyfriend before he slashed their throats

Chilling CCTV footage shows a jilted lover stalking his ex-fiancée and her new boyfriend moments before slashing their throats because she had refused to marry him.

According to dailymail, Bharat Soma, 26, knifed 17-year-old Darshana Narotam and Prashant Govinde, 22, in broad daylight after Ms Narotam 'dishonoured him' by fleeing from their arranged marriage.

Ms Narotam and Mr Govinde had left their homes in Wembley, London nine days earlier so the teenager did not have to go through with the forced marriage.
But Soma managed to track the couple down in Leicester, where he carried out the so-called 'honour' attack in front of horrified shoppers on a Sunday afternoon


In the footage, Soma is seen following the victims along the busy street, just seconds after they have passed the same spot.

Soma then slit Ms Narotam's throat while holding her from behind, before stabbing Mr Govinde through the neck with the same knife.

He then repeatedly screamed 'my wife, my wife', as the weapon was prised from his hands by one of the victims.

The defendant, from North Evington, Leicestershire, has now been jailed at Leicester Crown Court for 23 years after being found guilty of two charges of attempted murder.



In 2012, the two families agreed that Ms Narotam would marry Soma after she turned 18.

But Ms Narotam did not want to go through with the marriage.Instead, she planned to marry Mr Govinde and left home with him on January 10.

The defence counsel said that, after discovering she had fled, Soma was 'disturbed, troubled and depressed'.

But he soon received a tip off about the couple's location from a family friend. He then 'acted on impulse' in carrying out the frenzied attack, the court was told.

Prosecutors said Soma had tried to kill the pair because he considered they had 'dishonoured him'.

But Soma had said he carried out the attack because his 'mind wasn't working' and he was a victim of black magic.
