Ankit’s father demanded the death sentence for those who killed his son.
“We want justice. Murderers of my son should get the death sentence. I am an ordinary man and I have no resources to fight the case. If the Delhi government helps us in getting the best advocates and making a strong case, I will be thankful,” said Ankit’s father.
Four accused, including a juvenile, were sent to judicial custody on Saturday in connection with the case.
The 23-year-old was stabbed to death by the family members of his girlfriend, who were against their relationship. Saxena was in a relationship with a 20-year-woman.
Police arrested the woman’s father Akbar Ali, mother Shahnaaz, a juvenile younger brother and uncle Mohammed Salim on February 2. They were produced before a court which sent them to judicial custody.
