The girl was stabbed 16 times before being beaten with a concrete block, according to the police.
In a case that has shocked the public in India, a 20-year-old man has been apprehended on suspicion of stabbing a teenage girl multiple times and beating her to death in broad daylight.
The video, which has gone viral and sparked outrage in India, depicts a large number of onlookers and passersby.
Sunday’s murder was preceded by an argument between the couple, according to police.
Similar outrage and introspection followed the gangrape and consequent death of a 23-year-old physiotherapy student on a bus in Delhi in December 2012. Her male companion, who was also assaulted but survived, later described how they lie injured and bleeding for twenty-five minutes before anyone stopped to assist them.
The murder occurred in the north Delhi neighbourhood of Shahbad Dairy, where the adolescent was planning to attend the birthday party of her friend’s son.
The suspect apprehended by police has been identified as Sahil Khan, and police say he was the victim’s boyfriend.
CCTV footage captured the crime. Several individuals witnessed this but paid it no mind. The chief of the Delhi Commission for Women, Swati Maliwal, was quoted by ANI as saying that the city has become exceedingly dangerous for women and girls.
The suspect was apprehended at a relative’s residence in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, according to the police.
“As soon as the police found about the woman’s murder, on Sunday night, Sahil’s parents were detained. We discovered that Sahil had been calling them, and based on technical surveillance, a dedicated police team raced to the identified location and apprehended Sahil near Bulandshahr, according to police special commissioner Dependra Pathak.
He formerly worked as an AC and refrigerator mechanic. ‘We will ensure that the accused receive the harshest punishment possible’, Deputy Commissioner of Police Suman Nalwa told the news agency ANI on Monday.
Janak Raj, the girl’s father, told CNN, “I saw my daughter lying on the ground with her face to the ground.” “Her organs were expelled and her cranium was smashed in. She lay there inert. “There was no reason to take her to the hospital.”
“It enrages me that nobody helped my daughter,” he continued. If they had provided assistance, she would be alive today. I’ve also heard that bystanders were actively recording videos of the incident. Even if they had shouted, my daughter would have been saved.”
‘We never knew about the man,’ the girl’s mother claimed. We want him to be put to death.
“A young lady was brutally slain in Delhi. This is very unfortunate and tragic. No longer fearful of the authorities, criminals have lost all respect for authority. Mr. Kejriwal tweeted in Hindi, “LG sir, you are responsible for law and order; take action.”
