In yet another shocking murder in Delhi, a 23-year-old woman named Nikki Yadav was brutally killed, allegedly by her live-in boyfriend Sahil Gehlot. The details of the shocking murder came forward and Gehlot was arrested by the Delhi Police from Najafgarh.
The body of the woman was found inside the freezer of the dhaba owned by Gehlot after he allegedly strangled her to death. It was reported that Nikki and Sahil were in a relationship, and the man had murdered her in a fit of rage.
In an incident that is eerily similar to the Shraddha Walkar murder case, Sahil Gehlot murdered his live-in partner after a tussle, strangling her to death and then storing her body inside the freezer of his dhaba for 2-3 days after her death.
Why was Nikki Yadav killed by her boyfriend?
Nikki Yadav, a 23-year-old woman from Delhi’s Uttam Nagar area, had been living with her boyfriend Sahil Gehlot for several months. The two had met when Nikki was preparing for an entrance exam, and soon sparked a romantic relationship.
Nikki Yadav had gotten to know that Sahil Gehlot is planning to get engaged to another woman, while the couple previously had plans to get married. Nikki decided to confront the accused and went to meet him, after which they got into an argument.
Sahil and Nikki had plans to get married but his parents were against the union, which is why he decided to marry another woman. When an argument between the two broke out, Sahil strangled Nikki with a data cable till she died.
Sahil then put Nikki’s body in his Verna car and drove for around 40 km with her in the passenger seat.
Nikki’s body was then hidden in the freezer of the dhaba owned by Sahil Gehlot’s family. Her body was reportedly kept there for 2-3 days. Nikki’s parents filed a missing person report with the Delhi Police, after which an investigation was launched, leading to the discovery of the body.
This case has many similarities to the Shraddha Walkar murder case, where Aaftab Poonawala killed his live-in partner in a fit of rage and then stashed her body parts in his freezer.
