New Delhi: An 18-year-old woman was stabbed to death in a Greater Noida market on Friday evening by her alleged stalker, who also stabbed himself after being cornered by shopkeepers and policemen.

The woman, Khushboo, who worked at a store in the market, was rushed to a hospital in a critical condition and succumbed to her injuries later. The accused, 25-year-old Kuldeep, is also critical, police said.

According to Khushboo’s family, the accused had been stalking her for the past several months. They said she had informed them that a man was stalking her on a motorcycle from Dadri to her workplace in Jagat Farm market. They had even warned Kuldeep’s family that they would file a police complaint, but the harassment did not stop.

On Friday morning around 11:30, Kuldeep went to the front of the store where the victim worked and demanded that she talks to him. She went towards the first floor of the plaza with him and talked to him briefly, but after she tried to leave, the accused allegedly stabbed her multiple times with a knife.

On hearing the woman’s cries for help, all shopkeepers came out of their stores and also called the police. Kuldeep tried to flee, but on seeing the police arrive, he stabbed himself at the same spot where he had stabbed the woman, a shopkeeper told Hindustan Times.

Police have booked Kuldeep for attempt to murder under section 307 of the Indian Penal Code. Cops also clarified that the victim's family had never filed a police complaint about the stalking.
