The daylight murder of a twenty-one-year-old college student in Haryana’s Faridabad which occurred on Monday sent shockwaves through the country. While the accused and his accomplice have been arrested, investigations have unraveled a new angle to the killing other than ‘love jihad’. While the first-round investigation revealed that Nikita Tomar had refused Tauseef’s overtures to convert to Islam and marry him, reports now claim that the accused killed her also out of revenge.
Nikita was killed on Monday afternoon right outside her college in Faridabad’s Ballabhgarh where she had gone for an examination. Nikita’s family has now said that the boy was harassing her for several years, so much so that they had to file an FIR against him in 2018. Following this, the police arrested Tauseef, as a result of which he could not complete his medical studies, according to the media report. The girl’s parents were of the opinion that the issue was over after they withdrew the case at the behest of the boy’s pleading parents. Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on Tuesday assured strict action against the accused.
