As per the reports, Gehlot took help of his friends and family to get rid of Nikki, by killing her mercilessly. Sahil’s father Virendra Singh, cousins Ashish and Naveen along with his pals Amar and Lokesh are currently under the custody for their involvement in the heinous killing.

Gehlot got arrested on Tuesday, and later was presented before the court and was kept in the custody for five days. During the interrogation process, Sahil confessed his crime and informed the police that Nikki and he already got married back in 2020. 

So technically the duo was not just a living in together but were also husband and wife. The other accused individuals informed that, Sahil had planned the murder and executed it likewise. 

They all were told about the murder on the same day he executed it, added another accused. On 9th of February, Nikki was killed with cable inside Gehlot’s car, and her body was stuffed inside a refrigerator in Gehlot’s restaurant.

Police recovered the body on 14th of April, four days after the incident took place. The cops nabbed Sahil by tracking down his location and created the search after receiving information about Nikki being missing.
