Greater Noida, Aug. 29 -- Investigators probing the death of 28-year-old Nikki Bhati have revealed that a panchayat meeting was held in mid-April where her family and her in-laws struck a set of "assurances" to resolve disputes between the couple. Among these, Nikki and her sister Kanchan-married into the same family-were asked to sign an "undertaking" that they would stop making social media reels. In turn, the Bhati family assured them that Nikki's husband, Vipin, would not misbehave with her. Investigators working on the case told HT on Thursday that the meeting was convened after Nikki walked out of her marital home following a violent altercation with Vipin on February 11. "Investigation revealed that Nikki and Vipin had a fight on February 11, after which both Nikki and her sister returned to their parents' house in Roopvas village, Dadri. In April, their in-laws approached them and requested a settlement through a panchayat. Elders from both families gathered and laid down conditions," said a senior police officer privy to the probe. "Both sisters were asked to stop making reels and limit their online activity. On the other side, Vipin's family promised that he would not misbehave with them," the officer said. But according to her relatives, the disputes quickly resurfaced. Vipin allegedly resumed drinking and picking fights, and when Nikki and Kanchan began using social media again and expressed interest in reopening their beauty parlour, tensions escalated further. Greater Noida additional deputy commissioner of police Suhir Kumar said, "Our investigation is underway; soon we will file a chargesheet."...
