How they met
Jasvir Ram Ginday in search of a wife had travelled to the subcontinent with his mother to find a bride and met several women before a match-maker known to both families introduced him to Miss Rani.
They became engaged at the end of the meeting they had with Miss Rani's family which lasted several hours.
Miss Rani’s family believing Ginday to be a perfect match for their intelligent, well-educated, and attractive young daughter, gave their daughter away to Jasvir Ginday and in March 2013, Jasvir Ram Ginday, 30 and his beautiful wife Varkha Rani, 24 tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in India.
The bride, who had completed a degree and a master’s degree in science and information technology in India, moved to the UK to live with Ginday in August after being granted a visa.
In the afternoon of September 12, 2013 (a month after Miss Rani joined her husband in the UK), Jasvir Ram and his wife had been alone in the house at Walsall, West Midlands when their neighbours saw smoke and likened the smell to that which comes from a crematorium.
When one concerned resident knocked on Ginday’s door, he claimed he was simply burning rubbish.
Police searched the property that night after Ginday made the missing persons report, but they did not look in the garden.
They returned the next night after neighbours reported seeing black smoke for the second day running. police discovered the unrecognisable remains of the 24-year-old bride in the back garden of the home they shared with other members of Ginday’s family.
Jasvir strangled his wife with a metal vacuum pipe, burnt her body and tried to destroy her remains in an incinerator until a woman police constable lifted the lid of the incinerator and found herself looking down on a human skull which was severely burnt.

Officers also discovered Miss Rani’s wedding ring inside the 22-inch deep incinerator.
An examination of computer equipment showed that somebody at the property had searched for incinerators online around four weeks before Miss Rani’s death.
CCTV images also showed Ginday filling up a water bottle with petrol at a service station just hours before the body was discovered.
The Prosecutor in charge of the matter, Prosecutor Debbie Gould told a jury that after Ginday killed his wife, he had forced her body into a 22-inch deep metal incinerator in an alley beside their home. He called police that night to report her missing, claiming she had walked out after assaulting him and had only married him for a visa to get into the UK.
Wolverhampton Crown Court heard Ginday allegedly carried out the brutal attack on his wife because he was unable to pretend to be straight. |
‘Over the years the defendant made contact with gay chat lines to discuss his sexuality, he developed a network of gay male friends and he attended gay clubs in the Birmingham area.’
Miss Rani’s father, Surjit Singh told the jury he had no idea his son-in-law was gay, and didn’t even know what the term meant. He said through an interpreter that he had been ‘shocked and distressed’ after British police had explained it to him.
He added: ‘Of course I wouldn’t have let her marry him if I had known. I have never heard of it before. No, Varkha didn’t know about gay either.’
