Sahil Gahlot allegedly murdered his live-in partner Nikki Yadav on February 10, 2023. |
He reportedly used a mobile charger's data cable to strangle Nikki inside his car and then concealed her body in a refrigerator at 'Khao Piyo Dhaba' in Mitraon village, Southwest Delhi, that he owned. |
On the same day, he married a woman chosen by his family. |
Sahil is from a Jaat family in Mitraon village, Najafgarh, Delhi. |
Sahil and Nikki met in 2018 on a bus to their tuition classes, fell in love, and began a live-in relationship. |
They were together for almost four years. |
While Nikki's family was unaware of their relationship, Sahil's family knew and disapproved. |
Despite this, Sahil's parents arranged his marriage to another woman in December 2022. |
Sahil conspired with his father to murder Nikki, hiding her body in his dhaba before marrying someone else. |
Sahil's father, two cousins, and two friends were also arrested for assisting in covering up Nikki's murder. |
Sahil faces charges under the Indian Penal Code for murder and causing the disappearance of evidence. |
