Deputy CM Manish Sisodia slams Delhi Police

A 21-year old woman, Karuna, was brutally attacked in Delhi's Burari area on 20 Sep.

The accused is a 34-year old who had relentlessly stalked her for 18 months.

The victim's family had registered a complaint against him six months ago but the families reached a compromise.

Karuna, a part-time teacher at a school, was on her way to work when the attack happened.

According to the Delhi police, Karuna was stabbed 27-28 times and the 3-minute attack was caught on CCTV.

A passer-by tried to intervene but the attacker scared him off.

Some witnesses claimed to have called the ambulance and the police but neither came despite there being a police-station close by.

The CCTV showed 30-40 people walking by but only one person tried helping.

Deputy Chief Minister, Manish Sisodia lashed out at the Delhi Police over the gruesome murder of a 21 year old woman in broad daylight.

Sisodia took to social media to say that the Delhi Police needed to urgently focus on the common man's security instead of harassing AAP leaders.

This is the latest flash point between the AAP-led state government and the Delhi Police.

After the attack, the accused was subdued by several locals and was handed over to the police.

An eyewitness hailed an auto and took the girl to the hospital.

Allegedly, the accused also took pictures of the victim's body after killing her.

Subsequently, relatives of the victim assembled at the Trauma Centre in Civil Lines where her body was taken, to mark a protest.
