28-year-old newlywed Aakriti Sutar died after falling from the third floor in Delhi’s Lodhi Colony. The family has alleged dowry harassment and murder, while the police are investigating the case keeping all the aspects in mind.
New Delhi: A case of death of 28-year-old newly married Aakriti Sutar under suspicious circumstances has come to light in Lodhi Colony of the national capital Delhi. According to police, Aakriti had fallen from the third floor of a residential complex on Saturday night. He was taken to the hospital in a seriously injured condition, where doctors declared him dead.
The case took a new turn when the deceased’s family refused to accept it as suicide and made serious allegations of murder and dowry harassment against the husband and in-laws. At present the police is investigating the matter and all aspects related to the incident are being investigated.
The family rejected the possibility of suicide
Aakriti’s family members say that she was following her normal routine on the day of the incident and her behavior did not indicate any kind of mental stress or depression.
According to the family, Aakriti had gone to the office of her private company on Saturday. There he also had a small party with his colleagues. Family members say that if a person is working normally, spending time with colleagues and talking about future plans, then committing suicide after a few hours does not seem natural.
She was normal in her last conversation with her mother.
The family told that on the day of the incident, Aakriti had talked to her mother on the phone at around 6 pm. During the conversation, she mentioned the office party and told that she was returning home. Family members say that during the conversation his voice was normal and he did not indicate any kind of problem or stress. The family questions that if everything was normal, then what happened that he died just a few hours later.
Husband’s call and then police information
According to Aakriti’s uncle Mananjay Sutar, the family received a call from Aakriti’s husband at around 8 pm. He told that Aakriti is missing. Family members say that about 90 minutes later, information was received from the police that a dead body of a woman had been found in Palika Kunj area. Later he was identified as Aakriti Sutar. Due to these developments, the family has termed the entire matter as suspicious and demanded a fair investigation.
Only two and a half months had passed since the marriage
According to police, Aakriti was a resident of Pushp Vihar area of South Delhi and was working as a sales executive in a private company based in Chhatarpur. She was married to Aristotle Sikka on 24 April this year. Only about two and a half months had passed since the marriage. According to the family, this marriage took place on the basis of both love and family consent. Family members say that from the initial days of marriage, Aakriti started being harassed for dowry.
Dowry harassment and assault allegations
Aakriti’s family has alleged that after marriage, she was continuously harassed for dowry by her husband and in-laws. She claims that her husband used to beat her many times.
However, these allegations have not been officially confirmed yet. Police say that the case is being investigated on the basis of the family’s complaint and the available evidence. The real reasons for the incident will be known only after the investigation is completed.
The relationship started with friendship
According to family members, Aakriti had earlier befriended Aristotle Sikka’s sister Augustika Sikka. During this time he met Aristotle and a relationship developed between the two. Later the marriage took place with the consent of both the families. The family says that such a tragic end to such a relationship raises many questions and an impartial investigation into the matter is extremely important.
Police is investigating from all aspects

The investigation is being carried forward on the basis of evidence found from the spot, CCTV footage, call records, forensic report and statements of the people concerned. Police say that it is too early to reach any conclusion. After completion of the investigation, appropriate legal action will be taken based on the available evidence.
Demand for impartial investigation intensifies
