New Delhi, Sep 24 (Inditop.com) The relatives of a 22-year-old woman who died in the national capital have alleged that the victim was killed by her in-laws for dowry, police said Thursday.
Deepti Sharma, mother of a girl, was admitted to a west Delhi hospital Wednesday by her in-laws where she died the same day, a police officer said.
“Deepti’s family members are alleging that she was killed by her in-laws as she did not agree to their regular dowry demands. An inquiry by a sub-divisional magistrate has been ordered and a complaint will be registered on the basis of the inquiry report,” the officer said.
Deepti’s father Kunwar Pal Sharma said: “When we reached the hospital, Deepti had already died. Her body had turned blue and blood was coming out of her ears.”
“Her in-laws were regularly troubling her for dowry and several times we settled the matter by talking. But this time they killed my daughter,” alleged Sharma.
