"Lady Don" Link Emerges In Delhi Teen's Murder Amid Protests, AAP vs BJP
Kunal Kumar, who went out around 7.30 pm on Thursday to buy milk from a shop near his home, was stabbed to death in Seelampur.
New Delhi:Delhi's Seelampur is on edge after a 17-year-old was stabbed to death last evening. There is a heavy police presence in the narrow lanes of Seelampur as the murder sparked protests in the area. Even as the police investigate the murder, the name of a "lady don" has now emerged in the case.
Kunal Kumar, who went out around 7.30 pm on Thursday to buy milk
from a shop near his home, was stabbed to death. Five people, armed with
knives, stabbed him repeatedly before vanishing into the narrow lanes of
Seelampur's J Block, witnesses said.
He was rushed to a hospital, but he died during treatment.
Kumar's family and locals allege that the attack was
orchestrated by a woman named Ziqra and her brother Sahil. The police have
launched a manhunt for both suspects.
"He was my younger brother. He had gone out to get milk.
Someone called him outside. A lady don, Ziqra, who was released from jail just
three months ago, is involved," the teen's sister told IANS.
Who Is "Lady Don" Ziqra?
Ziqra, who calls herself a "lady don" on Instagram,
once worked for a gangster's wife and now leads her own group of around 10 to
15 young men. She often posts videos waving weapons on her social media
platform. Just last month, she posted a video on social media flaunting a
country-made pistol. She has more than 15,000 followers on Instagram.
Per locals, she is frequently
seen roaming the area waving a pistol and filming reels for social media. She
was also seen with a gun during Holi celebrations.
The
videos, however, led to a First Information Report (FIR) under the Arms Act
against her and a brief jail term.
The
murder of the minor has sparked protests in the area, with locals blocking
roads and holding placards demanding justice for the boy and his family.
Visuals
from the area showed a crowd blocking the roads late Thursday night and Friday
morning, seeking justice.
AAP vs BJP
