A tragic case of domestic violence has shaken the capital. Kajal Chaudhary, a 27-year-old Delhi Police SWAT officer, died after being brutally attacked by her husband at their home in Mohan Garden, southwest Delhi.
According to police, Kajal was hit repeatedly on the head with a dumbbell by her husband, Ankur, leaving her with critical injuries. She was on the phone with her brother, a Delhi Police constable, when the assault began. Nikhil reportedly heard her screams and later received a call from Ankur saying, “She is dead, come to the hospital.”
Kajal was rushed to hospital but succumbed to her injuries on January 27, five days after the attack. The couple has a young son.
Police have arrested Ankur, who works as a clerk in the Ministry of Defence. Investigations are ongoing to determine whether disputes over finances or dowry harassment played a role in the attack.
This case has drawn widespread attention due to Kajal’s role as a trained law enforcement officer and underscores the persistent threat of domestic violence, even within police families.
