New Twist in Gurugram's Radhika Yadav Murder Case: Friend Himanshika's Video Hints at Conspiracy; Police to Conduct Detailed Inquiry.
Radhika Yadav News: A new development has emerged in the murder case of Radhika Yadav, a national-level tennis player from Gurugram. The police are now set to question Himanshika, Radhika's close friend. This is due to two videos that Himanshika shared on social media. In these videos, she has made serious allegations, accusing Radhika's father of plotting the murder.
Who is Himanshika and Why is She Under Investigation?
Radhika's friend, Himanshika, posted two separate videos on Instagram. In the first video, she stated that Radhika was an independent-minded girl who wanted to live her life freely. However, she was subjected to many restrictions by her family, which made her feel suffocated.
In the second video, Himanshika made the shocking claim that Radhika's father, Deepak Yadav, had planned the murder three days prior. He already possessed a revolver. According to her, he had sent other family members to different locations as part of the plan and then shot Radhika.
Police Take Notice of Videos, Investigation to Follow Soon
Gurugram Police have taken cognizance of these videos and are preparing to send a notice to Himanshika for questioning. The police want to know the basis for her claims.
Police officials say that if Himanshika had prior knowledge, why didn't she inform the police before the incident. Furthermore, investigating officers want to determine whether Himanshika's statement is credible or if she made these claims without any evidence.
How the Incident Occurred: Shots Fired in the Kitchen
The incident took place on the morning of July 10th. Radhika was in the kitchen, preparing food at their house in Sector 57, Gurugram, when her father, Deepak Yadav, shot her four times.
After the murder, Deepak Yadav claimed that some villagers taunted him, calling him a "man living off his daughter's earnings" and a "worthless father." He stated that he took this step due to the humiliation. However, this reasoning did not sit well with the villagers and local residents.
Was Radhika's Pet Dog Also Part of the Plan?
Himanshika's videos also included an interesting claim that Radhika had a pet dog named 'Luna'. Before the murder, Radhika's father had removed the dog from the house, allegedly to prevent Radhika from being alerted.
Furthermore, he locked his wife in another room and sent his son out of the house on some pretext. This deepens the suspicion that the murder was premeditated.
Questions and Public Reaction on Social Media
After Radhika's murder, various reactions have emerged on social media. Some people are calling it an honor killing, while others are linking it to a family problem stemming from mental stress.
The case has become even more sensitive after Himanshika's videos went viral. People are questioning whether society and the system could have saved Radhika if she was not safe in her own home.
