Mahak had completed Class 12 and arrived in Noida around three weeks before her death without informing her family. She was staying at the accommodation with her 18-year-old friend, Sanjana, also from Assam. Both women occupied rooms on the first floor of the three-storey building, while Raman lived in another room on the same floor.
Police probe corridor argument
Police said Mahak and Sanjana were walking through the corridor on the night of August 8 when they allegedly had an argument with Raman, who was sitting outside his room and drinking. Investigators are probing what triggered the dispute and what happened afterwards.
Sanjana left the accommodation the following day for work. On returning, she found Mahak missing and discovered that her phone was switched off. Later, residents detected a foul smell coming from Raman’s locked room. Raman was reportedly away from the property, prompting the landlord to alert authorities.
