New Delhi [India], August 8 (ANI): Two people have been arrested in the case in which actor Huma Qureshi's cousin, Asif Qureshi, was murdered in Delhi following a dispute over parking in the Bhogal area of the national capital, Delhi Police said on Friday. The wife of the victim, Shaina Qureshi, has alleged that the murder was pre-planned.
Shaina, the deceased's wife, alleged that this was a pre-planned murder, highlighting that the whole conflict was religion-based and the accused had a problem with them staying in a Hindu area.
She said, “Asif was a Muslim boy, and all the other residents here are Hindus. They (both the accused) had a problem with how he is so friendly with the Hindus. Why do they speak well of him? This was the whole issue. We do not even talk to them.”
She also alleged that the accused's younger sibling had a criminal record and is involved in nefarious activities. She said, “Their younger child is involved in theft and does drugs. He has a criminal record. The elder brother is also like him and supports him.”
She further added, “They attacked purposefully. If there is a fight, you can say what you have to. His sister is abusing me and Asif as well. She did not stop her brothers. This was a pre-planned murder. The girl kept saying ‘maro maro’ (beat them). “
