Victim had filed a molestation complaint against Taufeeq last month

The primary accused has now been arrested. While speaking about the incident, ACP (Ballabgarh) Jaiveer Rathi informed, “One of the accused has been identified as Tausif, a resident of Sohna. He was known to the victim and her family had lodged a complaint for harassment and molestation a few months ago. Both the parties subsequently reached a compromise”.

According to him, the ‘rejection of friendship’ could be a motive behind the crime.

"We complained earlier also as these people used to trouble her & now they killed my daughter," says victim's father (pic 1)
