The police escorted them to the dhaba where Sahil had placed Nikki's remains in a refrigerator a day after their detention; they continued.

Details of the Case

According to the Delhi police, Sahil Gehlot's father, Devendra Gehlot, was arrested on suspicion of murdering Nikki Yadav. The incident occurred when Nikki Yadav went missing from her Adarsh Nagar, Delhi residence. After her parents filed a complaint, the Delhi police initiated an investigation and eventually found her dead body near a railway track in Haryana.

The police found evidence that Devendra Gehlot had conspired with his accomplices to murder Nikki Yadav. The motive behind the murder was reportedly a financial dispute between Nikki Yadav's father and Devendra Gehlot.

Legal System in India

The case of Sahil Gehlot's father highlights the need for a robust and efficient legal system in India. The Indian judiciary is often criticized for its slow and cumbersome legal procedures, which can take years to resolve cases.

However, the recent increase in the use of technology and the implementation of online courts have helped to streamline the legal system to a great extent. The use of video conferencing, e-filing, and e-summoning has not only helped to reduce the backlog of cases but has also made the process more transparent and accessible.

Crime Statistics in India

The case of Nikki Yadav's murder is not an isolated incident in India. According to the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), there were 4,05,861 cases of crime against women in India in 2019. This number includes murder, rape, dowry deaths, and cruelty by husbands and relatives.

The NCRB report also states that the conviction rate for crimes against women in India is as low as 22.8%, a cause for concern. The government and law enforcement agencies must work together to ensure that the perpetrators of such heinous crimes are brought to justice.

Societal Perspectives

The case of Nikki Yadav's murder also highlights the need for a change in societal attitudes toward women. The patriarchal mindset prevalent in India often results in the subjugation and oppression of women, leading to incidents of violence against them.

It is essential to promote gender equality and empower women to reduce the incidence of such crimes. We can achieve this through education, awareness campaigns, and policy initiatives to create a safe and inclusive society for all.
