In a tragic incident in South Delhi's Kailash Hills, a 22-year-old daughter of an Indian Revenue Service officer was found dead by her parents after returning from the gym. The victim, an IIT graduate preparing for civil service examinations, was allegedly raped and murdered by Rahul Meena, a 23-year-old former household employee who had been dismissed two months prior for borrowing money from neighbors. Meena was arrested shortly after the crime and reportedly claimed, 'If Didi had given the money, this would not have happened,' indicating a lack of remorse. A Delhi court has placed him in four-day police custody for further interrogation to reconstruct the crime's events and motives.
