Notably, the accused Rahul Meena was captured on CCTV cameras, continuously speaking on his cell phone as he exited the house in Amar Colony shortly after committing the crime.
Meena spoke to cousin on call; said -”Maine Kaand Kar Diya Hai”
According to the statements recorded during the probe, Meena was speaking to his cousin, Trilok, who was based in Delhi at the time. He confessed to the crime before Trilok, saying- “Maine Kaand Kar Diya Hai. Ab Main Maara Jaunga. Police Mujhe Pakad legi (I have committed a heinous crime. I may die anytime soon. The cops will get me).” Meena’s mother, Mukeshi Devi confirmed the communication.
Delhi IRS officer daughter’s rape-murder: Accused denies involvement in rape case in Alwar
While reports of Meena allegedly raping a woman in Rajasthan’s Alwar, almost a day before killing the IRS officer’s daughter in Delhi surfaced, he has denied the involvement in the Alwar incident. He claimed before the cops that he had only visited the location in Alwar to retrieve his cell phone. However, the investigating police personnel suspect otherwise.
An FIR has been registered against Meena in the Alwar case too.
Meena made swift movement to Delhi from Alwar
Within hours of the alleged crime in Alwar, Meena travelled nearly 200 kilometres to Delhi. He then reached a housing society in Kailash Hills in the early hours of next morning. After entering his former employer’s house at around 6:39 am, he allegedly raped and killed the IRS officer’s 22-year-old daughter, a UPSC aspirant.
She was alone at the time of the incident, and when her parents returned from the gym, they found the entire house ransacked, along with their daughter lying in a pool of blood. Meena had made away with Rs 2.5 lakh in cash from the scene.
Cell phones missing
The police said that at present, the cell phones of both the accused and the victim woman are missing, adding another layer of complexity to the case. Meena is in police custody for four days, and is facing sustained interrogation.
