New Delhi: According to a member of the investigating team, Nikki Yadav, 23, and her suspected killer and live-in lover, Sahil Gehlot, planned to elope and even went to the Nizammudin train station but were unsuccessful in obtaining tickets for Goa.
The official claims that the accused Gehlot, who lived in Mitraon village, went to see the woman on February 9 at her Uttam Nagar home, where she shared a home with her younger sister.

Gehlot remained there for two to three hours before the two of them traveled to the Nizammudin train station. They arrived at ISBT, Kashmere Gate, but shifted their plans to Himachal Pradesh when they were unable to obtain tickets to Goa, according to the officer.

“When the pair arrived at ISBT, they started arguing. Gehlot claims that receiving back-to-back calls from his family during the fight pushed him over the edge and caused him to become aggressive.

Around eight in the morning on February 10, he then strangled Nikki inside the vehicle using the data cord from his mobile phone.

The murder occurred close to the Kashmiri Gate area, and Gehlot, a B. Pharma graduate, drove 45 kilometers with the body to his dhaba in the village of Mitraon. There, he placed it in a refrigerator and continued with his February 10 wedding.

Police have not yet confirmed the accused’s admission, and the investigation team is presently reviewing CCTV video of the whole path to determine the crime’s progression.

Balangir: Gobinda Sahu, the principal culprit in the Mamita Meher murder case, reportedly committed suicide on Tuesday at Kantabanji Sub-Jail in Odisha’s Balangir district.
According to authorities, Sahu was discovered with a gamcha hanging from a tree on the jail grounds and was transported to Kantabanji Sub-divisional Hospital, where medics proclaimed him dead. Sahu was supposed to appear in front of the JMFC court.
Mamita, a native of Balangir’s Turekela block, was employed as a teacher at the Sunshine English Medium School in Mahaling, Kalahandi district. On October 8, 2021, the 24-year-old instructor went missing. Mamita’s family members filed a police report, alleging that the school’s management committee head, Sahu, was involved in her abduction. On October 19, Mamita’s burnt bones were discovered at the construction site of a stadium near the school.
Sahu was later arrested for kidnapping and killing Mamita with the assistance of his driver, Radheshyam Chandi.
Sahu allegedly met Mamita in Chandotara on October 8. He then drove her to Bhawanipatna for some shopping. Later, both went to the Manikeswari temple, and on the way back, he strangled her to death in the back seat of the automobile.
Ranjit Sahu, the principal of Mahaling College, and Kruti Chandan, a member of the management committee, were detained earlier this month on suspicion of influencing witnesses in the murder case.
