The 22-year-old daughter of an IRS officer was murdered in South Delhi’s Amar Colony on Wednesday (April 22, 2026). Police suspect the involvement of a former house help (Rahul Meena) and believe that the woman was strangled to death, likely with a mobile phone charging cable, as it was found at the scene.
The incident reportedly happened while the woman's parents were out for a walk, suspecting that the house help had entered the house and killed her. "He was recently removed from his job," police said.
The murder came to light when Gupta, a 1997-batch Indian Revenue Service (IRS) officer, returned home and discovered his daughter lying in a pool of blood. As soon as police were alerted about the incident, they rushed to the site, where they took custody of the body and launched a probe, according to several media reports.
