She was the daughter of a former security guard and an anganwadi worker. She had completed Class 12, and was keen to go to college. But then, with her father having quit his job as a guard years ago, she decided to sign up as a receptionist at a resort late last month. She did not, however, live long enough to collect even her first salary.

This, in short, is the story of 19-year-old Ankita Bhandari, according to her family members.

On Saturday, the police recovered Ankita’s body from a canal, six days after she went missing from the resort in the Laxman Jhula area of Uttarakhand.

On Friday, the police had arrested Pulkit Arya, resort owner and son of former state minister Vinod Arya, and said he had allegedly confessed to pushing Ankita into the canal after an altercation. The resort manager Saurabh Bhaskar and another person identified as Ankit were also arrested.

Speaking to The Sunday Express, Uttarakhand DGP Ashok Kumar said the police have now found evidence suggesting that the accused were allegedly putting pressure on Ankita to provide “special services” to some of the guests at the resort — and that she was killed when she resisted.

Disgusting as it gets; the gormint may have jumped the gun on demolition, they would have built a solid case if they gave a damn about evidence & due process. This is why I don't agree with bulldozer politics.

Didn’t the accuse accept the charge ? Agree the demolition is stupid but looks like this resort has been doing illicit activities for some time.

He was forcing Ankita to give special service to some VIP guest. Who was the VIP , this is main question.

This topic about the tragic Ankita murder deserves input from more fellow ICF members who might also have female siblings/kids in their family.....this video might help them understand more about Law & order situation in Uttarakhand...hopefully

Please understand state before believing such half cooked videos. Uttarakhand has population of 1.2cr people ie equal to half of south delhi. So call cities of state like Dehradun, Haridwar, Roorkee, Haldwani and 2-3 tourist spot would be 50% of population but maybe 5% of land. ~ 20% of villages have less than 10 people (most are abandoned). North of entire state is all Himalayas and not habitable.  How does 60% not monitored by police now sound ?
