Serial honour killers - Have you seen these men?

Delhi ‘honour killings’: Police offer reward  - The Delhi Police  has offered a reward for any information on two cousins, suspected of  killing their sisters for family pride. They have also released the  pictures of the suspects.

For anyone who believed honour killings are a curse of rural India, this was a brutal reality check.

Three honour killings in 48 hours- the victims were all from the same family in West Delhi. First, a young couple, Kuldeep and Monica, were murdered near their home. Then, the body of Monica's cousin, Shobhana, was found barely 300 metres away in a car. Shobhana helped Monica elope; she was also in love with a man her parents did not approve of.

The brothers of the two women are missing; the police believe they were involved with the deaths. A third suspect is their friend. A reward is being offered by the police for any information that can help locate them.

A cousin of Shobhana and Monica's, who also married against her family's wishes - is believed to be in danger.
