A couple took their own lives by decapitating themselves with a makeshift guillotine, it has emerged.
Police said the bizarre contraption was created so the husband and wife could offer their heads as a sacrifice.
Farmer Hemubhai Makwana, 38, and 35-year-old wife Hansaben "severed" their heads from their bodies with a "guillotine-like mechanism" in Vinchiya, a village in Rajkot, India.
