An 18-year-old woman named Shabnam was found murdered inside a trial room at a West Delhi showroom on Saturday evening. Police believe she was killed with a sharp weapon by an acquaintance whose relationship with her had recently deteriorated. Authorities are currently examining CCTV footage and actively searching for the absconding suspect.

An 18-year-old woman was allegedly murdered inside a trial room on Saturday evening. Police think that the woman was killed by a man who knew her. 

The victim was identified as Shabnam, who worked at a showroom near Moti Nagar Metro Station and lived with her family in West Delhi.                                             

Police said that the accused was known to the victim and could have been a friend. 

The accused reportedly arrived at the showroom around the time shabnam shift was about to end on Saturday; he allegedly took her into the showroom trial room and attacked her. 

He reportedly used a sharp weapon to slit her throat and fled the spot.                 

Investigators think that the accused and the victim shared a friendship and that their relationship recently deteriorated over the past few months.                         

The incident came to light at 9:00 when the showroom employees were preparing to close for the day; staff members found Shabnam lying in a pool of blood. 

One eyewitness, Ashu, said that the Shabnam was last seen at around 6: 45.

“We had seen the girl sitting there at 6:45. Then, at 7:30 or 7:45, I got a call from the owner of her shop saying, 'Shabnam isn't anywhere to be seen...' We immediately called the police, saying we were calling them in, and called her parents, telling them, 'Please come quickly. Something has happened to Shabnam.' Meanwhile, we were thinking of calling an ambulance too, but then we said we'd call one as soon as the police arrived. The police arrived within 10 minutes,” she said.

They alerted the police. The officer found that the injury marks were caused by a sharp-edged weapon. 

Police are examining CCTV footage from the showroom to reconstruct the sequence of events. They are also tracing the accused's movements inside the premises. Police teams have also been formed to trace the suspect, who is still absconding. 

The case is being investigated from all angles.
