Greater Noida:  A Khap Panchayat in Greater Noida has ruled that a
Dalit boy, who apparently eloped with a Brahmin girl from another
village, will have to face the consequences if the girl does not
return home.

The boy's family in village Daula has alleged that the Khap Panchayat
has ordered the killing of the couple. His family members also claim
that the Panchayat has threatened other women of the village against
committing such things.

The Greater Noida police said the residents of the boy's village will
be given protection.
