Delhi Police Recreate Crime Scene and Investigate Gambling Debt in Kailash Hills Murder Case

Desk Correspondent , New Delhi - The Delhi police conducted a recreation of the crime scene at Kailash Hills following the brutal rape and murder of 22-years-old women, shifting their focus toward questioning the family of the accused 19-year-old Rahul Meena. Investigators are set to interrogate Meena's father in Alwar and his uncle in Gurugram to determine his movement after the crime and to understand the background of his reported ₹7 lakh gambling debt. The victim, the daughter of the civil servant, was killed on Wednesday after Meena allegedly gained access to her home using a spare keycard and attacked her when she refused to give him money.

Recent developments in the investigation include the recovery of the victim's mobile phone, which Meena had discarded near a park in Garhi Village before fleeing to a hotel in Dwarka. Police have also seized blood-soaked clothing and are preparing to subject the accused to a psychoanalysis test to evaluate his mental state, citing his lack of remorse and "nonchalant" behavior during interrogation. Meena was apprehended at a hotel where he had checked in using his real Aadhaar ID, reportedly appearing "calm and sweet" to staff just hours after the horrific assault.

Legal proceedings are moving swiftly as Meena remains in a four-day police custody, during which he has undergone a potency test and will be mapped through his escape route. “I remember him. He had come to book a room. He told me he was from Alwar and had come to Delhi for some work. He was very calm and sweet. It did not look like he had committed such a horrific crime. He was even apologetic for not having an ID on him and gave me his Aadhaar ID number. He paid ₹1,500 in cash and went to his room. Around 4 pm, a police team came in and started questioning. I was scared. I later found he had killed and raped an innocent girl. I had no idea,” said the manager of hotel where Meena stayed. A senior police officer reported, “At the hotel, he ordered a T-shirt online and some food. He will soon be taken to recreate the crime scene and map his escape route. On Friday morning, a team led by a deputy commissioner of police (DCP) went to reconstruct the crime scene to ascertain how he managed to enter without being spotted on many cameras and attack the victim. We have also taken him for a potency test, which is part of legal procedure.”
