Neeraj's 21-year-old wife Sanjana said he was attacked since her family members were against their love marriage. The young widow identified two out of the five attackers as her cousins. "The other three were wearing masks," said exhausted Sanjana, sitting near Shah Inayat Gunj Police Station.
The couple got married in April of last year. They have a two-month-old son.
The business persons from the locality also gathered in huge numbers at the police station demanding justice for Neeraj's family and the case will be tried in Fast Track Court.
