God knows what madness prompted her to run away with that boy 
Amreen's aunt, Syeda - "The boy, Lokesh, would come here every morning to buy milk. That's how he met the girl and they fell in love,"
-
- The pair fell in love buying and selling milk
- "She was a lovely girl, very innocent and always used to read the Koran. God knows what madness prompted her to run away with that boy. We're all very sad at what happened."
- "The young couple were legally married and therefore entitled to live together. Their parents and the villagers had no right to put pressure on them and force them to commit suicide. They are guilty of a crime and we will do all we can to build a case against them."
