Eyewitness revealed explicit details about how the photographer was brutally murdered by his girlfriend's family in front of his parents as mother-father duo begged for his life.
Days after the gruesome murder of a young man in Delhi by angry family members of his girlfriend, shocking details have emerged that show how the murder was planned meticulously.
Ankit Saxena, the 23-year-old photographer, was stabbed to death in Delhi’s Raghubir Nagar area on Thursday. Now, a latest media report says that not just girl’s father and brothers, but her mother also played crucial role in the crime.
The mother of the girl ‘staged’ a road rage scene to get Ankit out of his car so that the men of her family can attack the young man.
Ankit was killed by the family as they were against his relationship with their daughter Shehzadi. Now, fresh eyewitness accounts have surfaced in media reports that show it wasn’t an act done in ‘fit of rage’. According to The Hindustan Times, Shehzadi’s mother deliberately rammed her scooter with Ankit’s car and forced him to get out of the vehicle.
“Shehzadi’s mother rode right into Saxena’s car. He did not know that the scooter rider was his girlfriend’s mother,” the eyewitness was quoted as saying by the HT.
The girlfriend's mother confronted Ankit about her daughter, who went missing during that day. Soon, her family members and relatives who were nearby joined her and started abusing and heckling Ankit.
There are reports that Ankit, in effort to save his life, went on to deny any relationship with the girl. Meanwhile, few eyewitnesses who knew Ankit's family informed his parents, who lived nearby, and they soon rushed to the spot.
Shehzadi's family attacked Ankit and started throwing punches at him. Ankit's mother, who tried to intervene, was interrupted by his girlfriend's mother and was brutally thrashed and by her. Ankit tried saving his mother and picked up her. However, it was then that Shehzadi's family pulled him up by his hair and stabbed him to death. Shehzadi's uncle and brother held Ankit's arm while the girl's father slit his throat.
The victim was on his way to meet Shehzadi when her family caught sight of him. Shezadi's family was against their relationship and they feared their daughter would elope with Ankit.
Earlier, Ankit's mother Kamlesh had claimed her cry for help remained unanswered for almost half an hour as onlookers passed by and even e-rickshaw and auto-drivers refused to rush her injured son to the hospital.
"There were dozens of people watching my son get beaten up, but none of them dared to save him. My son was a body builder himself, but he was helpless when the killers caught and killed him. The sight of the woman’s father wielding a big kukri knife must have scared others,” Kamlesh said.
The victim's mother Kamlesh appalled by the apathy of the onlookers said she tried to stop the blood spilling from her son's neck and mouth with her hands as both she and her husband cried for help. After a long battle for help, an e-rickshaw driver finally agreed to help and they rushed him to nearby Guru Gobind Singh Hospital, however, her son, who was the sole earner of the family, died in her arms.
Ankit and Shehzadi met when they were neighbours but her family shifted to a different location after they got to know of the relationship.
"We were supposed to get married," said Shehzadi. "I was going to meet him when I heard he had been attacked by my family with a knife."
The police have arrested the girl's father, maternal uncle, and minor brother.
