Family Alleges Murder, Seeks Justice
On the other hand, the victim’s family member alleged that Qasim, with whom she went on a trip, killed her. “My sister came to Bhopal from home on November 3, and a man named Qasim took her for a trip on the same day. He brought her dead body from there yesterday. There are various injury marks on the body, and she has been murdered by him,” the victim’s sister told ANI.
Additionally, the victim’s mother also appealed to Chief Minister Mohan Yadav for justice in the matter. “My daughter lived here in Bhopal. She came home on the occasion of Gyaras and returned to Bhopal on November 3. On her return, Qasim went to the railway station to pick her up and told me not to worry, as she was with him. On November 8, I called my daughter and she replied that she was fine. After that, I received information to come to the hospital. We want justice from the administration. How did my daughter die? I want justice. CM Mohan Yadav ji, if you are hearing, please give us justice,” the victim’s mother told ANI.
