In a shocking incident in Uttar Pradesh’s Deoria district, a man reportedly cut off the genitals of his gay partner after discovering that he had allegedly raped his six-year-old daughter. Hours later, the father took his own life, police officials confirmed.
According to police, the 32-year-old father, a performer in a local orchestra group, had been living separately from his wife. After their separation, he rented a small room, which he shared with 35-year-old Rambabu Yadav.
Over time, the two men developed a close romantic relationship. Police said this living arrangement came under scrutiny after allegations surfaced earlier this week that Yadav had sexually assaulted the man’s daughter while she was visiting her father.
As reported by NDTV, the father confronted Yadav soon after learning of the alleged assault, leading to a violent confrontation. Police said, “The father cut off his partner’s private parts.” Yadav was seriously injured and first taken to Deoria Medical College before being referred to a hospital in Gorakhpur for further treatment. He remains under police supervision.

A case under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act has been filed against Yadav based on the father’s complaint. During questioning, Yadav reportedly disclosed details of his relationship with the father.
Police added that once the nature of the men’s relationship became public, the father faced intense social scrutiny. Early Friday morning, he was found dead in his room. Additional Superintendent of Police Sunil Kumar Singh confirmed, “Officers recovered the body and sent it for post-mortem examination.”
Initial evidence suggests death by hanging police said. Further investigation is underway to establish the circumstances and any contributing factors. The police authorities added that the child has been moved to her maternal grandparents' home and is receiving medical care and counselling.
Officials have collected evidence from the scene, and the child's medical examination has been completed. Forensic results are awaited.
