Anjali’s family members have claimed that the thieves broke open the lock of their house at Delhi’s Karan Vihar adding that an LCD TV was stolen among other items.

Anjali’s family members have claimed that the thieves broke open the lock of their house at Delhi’s Karan Vihar adding that an LCD TV was stolen among other items.
The family also alleged that Nidhi was behind the theft.
“Our neighbours first informed us about the theft around 7.30 am in the morning. When we came here, we found the lock to be broken. The LCD TV and other household items, stacked under the bed, were missing. The television is new. It has been two months since we purchased it,” said Anjali’s sister.

Another family member questioned the role of Delhi Police saying why there was no police in front of the house yesterday. “Police had been there for the last 8 days but yesterday no one was there. We feel Nidhi is behind the theft,” the family member said.
Meanwhile, the police said that an investigation was underway in the matter.
Earlier, Anjali’s maternal uncle had claimed that Nidhi, the eyewitness in the case, had hatched a conspiracy by claiming that Anjali had been drunk on the day of the accident.
His response came against the backdrop of claims by Nidhi to the media that Anjali was drunk on the day of the incident.

"Nidhi was hidden previously. Now she has surfaced after Anjali's last rites. When the incident happened, did she not have the humanity to report it to the police or family? She was scared then. Is she not scared now? This is Nidhi's conspiracy," Anjali's maternal uncle told the news agency.
The five accused in the case reportedly told the police they were aware that a woman was stuck under a car but continued driving because of fear.
The accused mentioned it in their disclosure, based on which section 304 (culpable homicide not amounting to murder) of IPC was included in the case, reported Hindustan Times citing an officer, who is aware of the development. Notably, disclosure by the accused before police is not admissible in court.
