New Delhi [India], August 31 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party spokesperson Priyanka Kakkar has criticised the BJP government for not maintaining law and order in the national capital, claiming that crime has increased here.
"It is very sad that every day we hear that crime has increased in Delhi. Murders are happening every day. At least one murder is happening every day. What is this? Where is the Home Minister? Where is LG? The four-engine government seems to be failing badly in Delhi," Kakkar told ANI on Saturday.
Kakkar's remarks come amid the double murder of two women in Delhi's Rohini Sector 17.
Decrying the state of rising crime, the AAP spokesperson mentioned that Delhi seems to be a "dangerous place" where even the Chief Minister can get attacked.
"If she is not able to protect herself, then how will she protect the people of Delhi? And what is the BJP doing about this?" she said.
Earlier on August 30, a man allegedly killed his wife and mother-in-law over a domestic dispute, police said.
The accused, identified as Yogesh Sehgal, has been arrested by the police.
The police said that a PCR call was received at the KNK Marg police station, stating that a woman and her mother had been murdered in a flat located in Sector-17, Rohini. When the police reached the spot, they found the blood-soaked bodies of two women inside a room on the third floor of the flat. The deceased were identified as Kusum Sinha (63) and Priya Sehgal (34).
On August 20, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta was attacked by a Rajkot resident, Rajesh Khimji, at her Civil Lines residence during Jan Sunvai. The accused has since been arrested and sent to custody while further investigation into the matter is underway. On August 25, another accused in connection with the incident was arrested by officials.
"Delhi police have arrested an auto driver from Rajkot, Gujarat, who is a friend of the accused Rajesh. He had allegedly transferred money to Rajesh," the Delhi Police said.
The Delhi police has also intensified its probe into the attack on Chief Minister Gupta, with investigators now seeking data from both her personal and official residences.
According to senior police sources, dump data -- which provides details of mobile tower locations, device signals and call records of all numbers active in a particular area -- is being retrieved from telecom service providers for specific time windows. (ANI)
