The horrific murder of Nikki over dowry in Greater Noida has left the community deeply disturbed. The accused husband Vipin, his brother-in-law Rohit, mother-in-law Daya, and father-in-law Satvir had demanded 3.5 million rupees, a Scorpio, and a Bullet after the marriage, which were fulfilled. Yet, they were after Nikki's father's Mercedes and an additional 6 million rupees. As a result, on August 21, Nikki was mercilessly beaten in front of her son and, once unconscious, was set on fire, leading to her death.
The tale dates back to December 2016, when Nikki and her sister Kanchan married Rohit and Vipin from Sirsa village. At the time of marriage, a Scorpio and a Bullet were provided. However, within months, further demands for dowry arose. Nikki’s family mentioned that dowry in the form of a Scorpio, Bullet, and 3.5 million rupees had already been given, yet the harassment persisted. Numerous reconciliations failed.
