A young Indian man, while hosting a program broadcast live, admitted on the Indian "News 18" channel that he had committed a murder.
Indian taxi driver Marinder Singh asked the channel officials that he wanted to confess his crime on the air, which prompted the administration to agree immediately, and even broadcast the episode of the recognition live, as well as inform the authorities.
The Indian authorities arrested the 31-year-old driver, after he confessed to killing his girlfriend in a heinous manner,
In the live show, Singh admitted to killing his ex-girlfriend on New Year's Eve by slitting her neck, because he believed she was in a relationship with another young man.
Singh said that the victim's family had refused to marry her after months of attempts, which pushed him to the brink of anger, as he put it.
The staff of a hotel in the city of Chandigarh had found the dead body of the 27-year-old, blood-stained, two days after her arrival at the hotel with Singh.
The policemen were photographed entering the studio, before escorting Singh outside the building, and placed in the police car.
