On August 21, Nikki had died after allegedly being set ablaze at her in-laws’ home in Sirsa village of Greater NoidaThe family of 26-year-old Nikki Bhati, who was allegedly set ablaze over dowry demands in Greater Noida last week, met Gautam Buddha Nagar Police Commissioner Laxmi Singh on Friday, seeking to take strict action against the accused.
On August 21, Nikki had died after allegedly being set ablaze at her in-laws’ home in Sirsa village of Greater Noida. The police have since arrested her father-in-law, mother-in-law, brother-in-law Rohit and husband Vipin. The arrests came after Nikki’s sister Kanchan — who is also Rohit’s wife — filed a police complaint.
Nikki’s brother Atul Payla told The Indian Express that Singh has assured the family that a chargesheet will soon be filed in the case. “My father, along with other family members, met the commissioner and she told us that the case will be heard by a fast-track court,” Atul said.
Nikki’s father, Bikhari Singh Payla, said he requested Singh to ensure that the culprits get severe punishment. “Commissioner madam has assured us that the accused will not be spared and stringent action will be taken against them,” he said.
On Wednesday, a member of the Uttar Pradesh State Commission for Women, Meenakshi Bharala, had met Nikki’s family at their residence in Roopwas village of Dadri. Bharala had also met Singh seeking a fast-track probe in the case.
The investigating officer in the case, meanwhile, said that the probe will soon be completed. “We are questioning more people and are collecting the evidence. The probe will be concluded soon,” he added.
