A horrific crime has rocked Meerut, in which a woman named Muskan Rastogi and her
lover Sahil Shukla killed her
husband Saurabh Rajput and concealed his mutilated body in a drum filled with cement. Muskan's own
parents are calling for the most severe penalty possible for her. "My daughter isn't entitled to life. In a startling declaration, Muskan's
father, Pramod Rastogi, declared, "She should be hanged."
According to him, Muskan acknowledged that he killed Saurabh because he prevented her from using narcotics. He went on to accuse Sahil of guiding her into addiction, saying, "She told me she couldn't live without them." In 2016, Saurabh married Muskan in spite of resistance from his family, and they lived apart. To celebrate Muskan's birthday, he came
home 22 days prior to the
murder after working at a bakery in London. But she and Sahil had already made plans to
murder him.
After Muskan put Saurabh under sedation on
march 4, the pair stabbed him, dismembered his body, and sealed it in a cement-filled plastic drum. When Rahul, Saurabh's brother, discovered Sahil in the
house after smelling something bad, the crime was made public. When Muskan said that Saurabh had been killed by his own family, Muskan's
parents also became skeptical. She broke down and confessed when her
father confronted her. Both Muskan and Sahil have been taken into custody by
police and are currently awaiting trial.
