Thekra, who previously worked for jailed gangster Hashim Baba's wife Zoya, was arrested, and her cousins Sahil Khan and Rihan Mirza were detained. The murder is suspected to be a revenge attack for an earlier incident involving Sahil Khan and members of Kunal Singh's community. The incident has led to protests by locals and Hindu organizations like Vishva Hindu Parishad, and has also triggered political tensions between India — Bharatiya Janata Party and India — Aam Aadmi Party over the law and order situation in Delhi.
