Brutal Attack Leads to Fatal Consequences

A shocking incident unfolded on the night of August 21 in Sirsa village, Greater Noida, where a woman was violently assaulted by her husband and another woman before being set on fire. The victim, identified as Nikki, tragically succumbed to her injuries while being transported to Safdarjung Hospital in Delhi. Her young son, who witnessed the horrific event, shared his traumatic experience.

Through tears, the boy recounted, "They poured something on mumma, slapped her, and then set her ablaze with a lighter." When asked if his father was responsible for his mother's death, he confirmed with a nod.

Nikki's murder was reportedly linked to dowry demands, occurring nine years after her marriage to Vipin Bhati in 2016. Following the incident, Nikki's elder sister, Kanchan, who is also married into the same family, lodged a police complaint against her in-laws, accusing them of physical abuse and demanding a dowry of Rs 36 lakh just six months post-marriage.

Disturbing videos circulating online depicted Vipin, shirtless, alongside another woman, as they assaulted Nikki, pulling her by the hair. Blood was visible on his body as he attacked her. Other footage showed Nikki descending the stairs engulfed in flames, with severe burn injuries evident.

Initially taken to Fortis Hospital in Noida, Nikki was later referred to Safdarjung Hospital, where she unfortunately passed away due to her injuries. Authorities have arrested her husband, and a case has been filed against her mother-in-law Daya, brother-in-law Rohit, father-in-law Satveer, and sister-in-law under various sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
