A 55-year-old woman was beaten to death by a mob in Aligarh on Tuesday because she allowed her college-going daughter to wear jeans. Shockingly, the mob was led by a woman.



The crime took place at Jwalajipuram colony in the Mallrose bypass area where one Phulwati, along with her aides, barged into the house of her neighbour, Netrapal Dubey, and killed his wife Kamlesh, mother of 20-year-old Gunjan. Netrapal and Gunjan have been admitted to hospital with serious injuries.



Phulwati and her associate, Ravindra Singh, have been arrested and sent to jail for killing Kamlesh. Netrapal, a driver, told the police that Phulwati used to object to Gunjan's wearing jeans.



"My daughter is an undergraduate student and she feels comfortable in jeans. Other girls of her college also wear jeans. But Phulwati, wife of a contractor, came to me one day and asked me to stop her from wearing jeans because it was vitiating the atmosphere in the colony," he said.
