The brutal murder of a 16-year-old girl on Sunday in Rohini, Delhi, shocked the country. People at Delhi's Shahbad Dairy simply strolled by without interfering or restraining Sahil as he stabbed the minor 21 times with a knife and bashed her with a cement slab.

According to the media reports, Sahil turned off his cellphone seconds after the murder and left the scene. Then he boarded a bus and travelled to Bulandshahr in Uttar Pradesh.
"After the incident, the accused fled and went to his relative in Bulandshahr to hide. However, after reaching there, he called his father and after that, the police arrested him through technical surveillance," police said, according to reports.
A few hours into the investigation, Delhi Police were able to locate him and took his father along with them to Bulandsher to nab the accused. Reportedly, the accused and the victim were in a relationship for the last three years and the minor wanted to part ways.
