When the grave was dug on the plea of Sagar’s father, the stolen story of unmatched love and hate came out.
26 July 2025, 10 am
There was a strange movement in Paldi village of Baghpat district that day. Because in the morning there was a team of police and district administration in the village. Through all the streets, this team stopped near the cemetery at the end of the village. As soon as the hint of the officers was received, the laborers started digging a special place with hoe and shovel in their hands.
A corpse came out of the ground
The excavation went on for about half an hour. As the pit deepened, the people nearby were forced to apply masks on their face. Finally, after about 45 minutes of effort, the laborers managed to get a corpse out of the grave. This corpse wrapped with white clothes was removed from the pit and kept out of the police carefully. In this way, after initial formalities, the police took the corpse and sent it for postmortem. Now the question was, whose tomb was that? Why did the police get the corpse out of the tomb out? After all, what was the secret of his death?
Video made by police negligence
So this story begins with a complaint received by the Baghpat police on the night of 23 July, in which a family from Paldi village not only feared to kill a girl from the village, but also described himself as a threat to his life and property. However, as usually it happens, the police kept sleeping with oil in their ears despite this complaint and then a video of the same family along with the police as well as all the officers of the administration, shook them as if they woke up from sleep. This video was of a person named Rampal, who was a resident of the village, who was revealing this incident of murder.
Story of Sagar and Sania
In his video, Rampal was complaining to all the top officials of the administration including UP CM Yogi Adityanath. Rampal is actually the father of Sagar Kashyap, a 19 -year -old boy. Whereas the corpse that was dug out of the grave in the village was from Sania, a 17 -year -old girl. And this story revolves around this ocean and Sania.
Sagar had driven Sania away from home
In fact, Sagar and Sania not only loved each other despite being from different communities, but also fled to Himachal Pradesh with Sagar on July 16, a few days ago. Sagar is Hindu, while Sania is a Muslim. Sagar and his family used to work in Una in Himachal Pradesh. A few days ago Sagar came to his village and then Sania left the house with her.
Householders had brought back
Just what then? After this, the house of Sania’s house chased both of them and reached Himachal Pradesh and brought them back to the village. Here, the family members of Sania not only held Sagar and her family hostage and assaulted them for the whole day, but also treated themselves with their daughter.
Sania fiercely assaulted
Sania’s house, especially her tau and cousin, wanted to marry her elsewhere, while Sania was insisted on getting married with Sagar. In such a situation, Sania was beaten up on July 16 and 17 and then on 23 July, Sania’s relatives started beating her again.
Sania murdered by strangling
The situation was that Sania’s parents herself got nervous after seeing the barbaric atrocities on her Sania in front of her eyes and she requested her relatives to spare Sania’s life. But despite this, the persecution of relatives continued and finally he strangled Sania’s life.
TB excuse behind Sania’s death
Now the girl was murdered. But a big challenge had arisen to hide the corpse. The people of the village also knew about the affair of Sagar and Sania and this atrocity with Sagar and Sania. In such a situation, Sania’s relatives also needed a story to bury the corpse as well as the rule of murder and that story became Tuberculosis i.e. TB disease. The people of Sania’s house said that Sania died of TB.
Not knowing everything, complaining to the police
After this, the family members reached the graveyard of the village on 23 July with his corpse. There the grave was dug in a hurry and Sania’s body was buried. But during the shroud-sofan, when people caught sight of Sania’s body, he was shocked. The marks of the corpse being strangled and beaten up before they died were clearly seen. It is another matter that despite seeing all this, the villagers did not complain to the police.
This fear was haunting Sagar’s family
But on the other hand, Sagar’s family was upset with the assault of Sania’s family members and threatening to kill him. He was having a double threat. One, he was scared of Sania’s family members, the other is that he felt that if the case of murder was opened yesterday, then he should not be implicated anywhere in this case.
Rampal pleaded by making videos
Therefore, Sagar’s father Rampal Kashyap called the police on the intervening night of 23 and 24 July and informed the whole incident. After this, the police took Sania’s Tau Matlub into custody, but there was no significant progress about the excavation of the grave and investigation of the case. And then Rampal released the video and pleaded. After which the investigation of the case started in the true sense, the DM of the district ordered to dig the corpse from the grave and in the presence of SDM, on July 26, Sania’s body was finally dug out by digging the soil.
Preparation to record Sagar’s statement
According to Baghpat Superintendent of Police (SP) Suraj Kumar Rai, at present, the police have taken the girl’s body for investigation. But after becoming a victim of the excesses and assault of the girl’s family members, Sagar again went to Una. The police of Baghpat are now preparing to bring back back. So that the investigation of the case can be carried forward by recording his statement.
Sania’s family took advantage of dominance
This village of Baghpat is a Muslim dominated. From above, Sania’s family is told that her grandfather used to be a local leader of a political party, due to which her son i.e. Sania’s father and Tau dominated the village. It is alleged that by taking advantage of this dominance, Sania’s family not only assaulted the people of Sagar, threatened to kill them, but also killed their daughter in the affair of false glory.
6 people including Sania’s Tau, uncle arrested
At present, the police have arrested a total of 6 people including the girl’s tau and cousin in this connection, while some more people are searching. But in this period, when the people sitting in the world are engaged in measuring the land of other planets, this incident of killing his own daughter by a family on the basis of caste-religion has shook the people.
