The incident took place on July 5 and was captured on a CCTV camera. 


As per the report, the woman was first approached by a man named Adil. The two soon started having an argument as the woman left the place discontinuing the talk. 


Suddenly, Adil took out a knife and stabbed her multiple times on a busy street in Mansarovar Park area of East Delhi. The victim tried to save herself and ran inside the shop but he followed her and continued to attack her.


As per the report, she was attacked at least seven times by the man. After carrying out the crime, the attacker fled from the spot. 


The girl's family and police were informed. She was rushed to the GTB Hospital in a critical condition where she succumbed to her injuries a day later. 


The police have registered a case against Adil and efforts are on to nab him. One of the police officials said, "According to preliminary information, the girl had known Adil for some time and used to talk to her frequently. However, after a while, she stopped communicating with him."


"The accused was upset over it and suspected her of being linked with some other guy. On Wednesday, he, with intentions of committing the act, initially approached her for a communication. After she refused to speak him and threatened to raise an alarm, Adil, in a fit of rage, attacked her multiple times and fled the scene," the official added. 


Even after 48-hour of the crime, the accused continues to remain at large.


The victim succumbed to her injuries early on Thursday, police said. 


The alleged attacker, Adil, continues to remain at large even as the police said the CCTV footage of the assault confirmed his role.


On the other hand, the victims' brother while speaking to Zee said, "even as she bled profusely, the onlookers waited for cops to arrive to take her to the hospital, fearing the police case in the murder."
