27-October-2020

Faridabad: A 21-year-old woman in Haryana was shot dead in broad daylight just outside her college by a man who first tried to shove her into his car. The woman's shooting has been caught in a frightening video that shows her attempts to save herself before being shot at point blank range.
The incident took place on Monday outside a college in Ballabgarh in Faridabad, where the woman, Nikita, had gone to take an exam. She was a final year commerce student.

The attacker, identified as Touseef, and his friend Rehan, were apparently waiting in a car for her to come out. The woman and her friend are seen in the video near the car, desperately trying to dodge the gun-waving attacker.

The man keeps chasing her before finally shooting her dead. His friend then drags him to the car and they drive off, leaving the woman bleeding on the road, her friend watching in horror. Nikita died in hospital.

Touseef has been arrested, according to the police. The woman's father said he had complained to the police about the man harassing her. "We complained earlier also as these people used to trouble her and now they have killed my daughter," the father told news agency ANI.

"My daughter went to appear for an examination at the college. He tried to forcibly make her sit in his car but she refused. After a brief scuffle, he shot her."

Police officer Jaiveer Rathi said Nikita knew Touseef. He "tried to speak to her and then shot her," he said.
