A police officer, meanwhile, said Surbhi’s statement would be recorded on Wednesday morning after which an FIR would be registered.

Surbhi’s brother-in-law Atul said they were supposed to visit the Industrial Area Phase I police station, but were informed that the officers were occupied. “We were asked to come to the police station around 2 pm today, but when we contacted the police officer concerned, he said he was busy with the duty in view of the protest march,” Atul added.
