On the day of the incident, Neha had gone to the terrace to check the water tank. Her father said that Taufiq had already reached the terrace secretly, wearing a burqa to hide his identity. There, he confronted Neha and began arguing with her. When Neha did not come back downstairs for a long time, her father went up to the terrace and saw a terrifying scene, where Taufiq was allegedly trying to strangle Neha.
When the father tried to stop him, Taufiq pushed both of them and ran away. Tragically, Neha was pushed from the fifth floor. She was immediately rushed to GTB Hospital, where she died due to her injuries.
Harassment and Pressure
Neha’s mother revealed that Taufiq had been harassing their family for the last three months. He was pressuring them to let him be in a relationship with Neha, even though she did not want to be in touch with him anymore. He had also threatened the family several times.
The family said that Taufiq had become aggressive recently. He would argue, threaten and even try to force Neha to talk to him. On the day of the incident, he not only assaulted Neha but also physically attacked her father before pushing Neha off the roof.
