Seelampur murder case: At least four people, including Zikra, a local woman known as ‘lady don’, were detained in connection with the murder of a 17-year-old boy in north-east Delhi’s Seelampur area.

Posters with “Hindus are migrating” and “Please help, Yoji ji” written on them surfaced in the area, which police later removed.

Following his murder, the family members of the deceased alleged that Zikra was present at the crime scene when the boy was killed. Police scanned the CCTV camera footage from the area and identified two suspects — Sahil and Rehan.
