He told us that it was their marriage anniversary and he went after wishing them," a neighbour said, reported ANI.
Speaking about the triple murder, Delhi Chief Minister Atishi Singh lashed out at the Bharatiya Janata Party-led central government. “This is not the first incident that highlights the rising crime in Delhi. Just a few days ago 2 policemen were murdered in broad daylight,” she said.
Atishi added that the BJP had only one responsibility in Delhi, and that was to provide security to the people.
Former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal also took to social media platform X to criticise the Centre. He said that “all those responsible, were watching silently”.
“Every day, Delhiites wake up to such frightening news. Criminals have been given a free hand, and law and order has collapsed. Homes are being destroyed, innocent lives are being lost. And those who are responsible are silently watching all this happen,” Arvind Kejriwal posted on X.
