Family’s Accusations
Nikki’s family has strongly rejected Vipin’s claims, accusing him and his parents of torturing her for dowry and ultimately murdering her. On Monday, her relatives staged a protest outside Kasna Police Station, demanding strict action.
Her father alleged that Nikki was doused with kerosene by her mother-in-law before Vipin set her on fire. “They kept demanding dowry. They wanted a car. I married my daughter as per tradition, but their demands continued. Now they have got what they wanted — my daughter is dead,” he said, holding back tears.
He described his son-in-law as “a butcher, not a human being,” and revealed that Nikki had suffered domestic violence even in the past. “Once we brought her home because of the abuse. But because of societal pressure, they came and took her back, promising it would not happen again. It did not stop. This was the result,” he added.
Nikki suffered over 70 per cent burns in the attack and was rushed to Safdarjung Hospital in New Delhi, where she was pronounced dead.
