In a tragic incident in Kailash Hills, South Delhi, 22-year-old IIT graduate and daughter of a senior Indian Revenue Service officer was allegedly raped and murdered by Rahul Meena, a former domestic worker. After assaulting her, Meena attempted to use her blood-stained fingerprint to unlock a biometric safe but failed. He then forcibly opened the locker with a screwdriver, stealing approximately ₹2 lakh (around $2,400 USD) in cash and jewelry. The victim was found unconscious by her parents upon their return from the gym and was later declared dead at a nearby hospital. Preliminary investigations suggest she was sexually assaulted and strangled using a mobile phone charging cable.
