Iqra Khan, the eldest daughter of an NDMC estate officer who was shot dead earlier this week, today met Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and demanded security for her family and "fair" probe in her father's murder case.
24-year-old Iqra, who is pursuing MBBS, met Kejriwal at his house and was accompanied by AAP MLA from Okhla Amanatullah Khan.
Her father Mohammed Moin Khan, a lawyer and an assistant legal advisor with NDMC, was shot dead by bike-borne assailants.
"During the meeting, Khan's daughter demanded a proper investigation in her father's murder case. She also demanded that security be provided to her family which is feeling unsafe these days," a senior government official said.
Aam Aadmi Party has alleged that NDMC Vice-Chairman Karan Singh Tanwar had threatened the 57-year-old estate officer with dire consequences a few days before his murder.
The party demanded his arrest and a probe by Delhi Police into his alleged "complicity" with the murderers.
Yesterday, Kejriwal had visited Khan's family and announced a compensation of Rs one crore.
New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) had offered a job to one of the family members of Khan and also allotted a house to them.
