20-year-old woman, a call centre employee, stabbed to death in Delhi

A 20-year-old woman working with a call
centre was stabbed to death by a man in
east Delhi on Monday.
The incident occurred at around 5 pm
near Dallupura furniture market when the
victim, Neha Yadav, was on her way home
to Noida with a male colleague. The
accused, Devender, intercepted their car
and asked the young woman to come out
of the vehicle. Devender then repeatedly
stabbed her.
The accused, in his early 20s, reportedly
lived in the same neighbourhood as the
victim and had been friends with her for
some time. He also apparently liked Ms
Yadav and grew jealous of her friendship
with her male colleague, who has been
identified as Gaurav. On finding the two
together yesterday, Devender reportedly
got into an argument with the young
woman and later attacked her in a fit of
rage.
The victim received three injuries on her
thighs, while her colleague was also
injured in the incident, police said.
She was taken to the Lal Bahadur Shastri
(LBS) hospital where doctors declared her
dead.
Devender was arrested from the spot,
the officer said.
