Deepali's mother said, "Jayant had called Deepali to meet him at around 11 pm. She was asleep at that time, but Jayant insisted to meet her. She went to meet him but she did not return home. We grew suspicious. On Saturday morning we came to know that Deepali has been killed. She was killed with a sharp weapon."
