Following this he took her jewellery, phone, laptop to his shop in Jhajjar and subsequently packed the body of the deceased inside a suitcase kept in the house and threw it in the bushes near Sampla bus stand, the police official said.

Speaking with ANI, Himani Narwal's brother, Jatin said, 'One accused has been arrested, and today we will cremate her (Himani Narwal). A lot of rumours are being spread in the media. I request media to not spread misinformation. We will get justice. We still don't know who the accused is; the police have not given us any information. We want death penalty for the accused,' Jatin said.

The Uncle of Himani Narwal also demanded justice, 'Whoever the accused is, we want justice. Till the time the identity of the accused is revealed, we will not cremate her. We have had no contact with the police,' Ravinder said.
