Delhi Police Probe Two Separate Killings of Women Suspected to Involve Known Assailants

Detectives are pursuing local leads using CCTV reviews alongside forensic analysis in both cases.

Overview

  • In Rohini’s Budh Vihar, 65-year-old Naresh Kumari was found dead with signs of assault, and doctors later confirmed death by strangulation.
  • Rohini investigators ruled out robbery after finding valuables untouched and no forced entry, with only her mobile phone missing and a neighbourhood acquaintance suspected.
  • A 25-year-old woman, identified as Sakshi, was discovered in her Kotla Mubarakpur rental with multiple stab wounds to the face and throat after a PCR call reported a quarrel and bloodstains.
  • Police say Sakshi was likely attacked by someone she knew following a dispute, the room was found locked from outside, and a man described as a male friend is being traced.
  • Murder cases have been registered in both incidents, crime and FSL teams have collected evidence, CCTV footage is under review, and no arrests have been announced.
