The tragic death of 24-year-old Harshita Brella has sent shockwaves through her community. Her body was found in the boot of a car, and all signs point to her husband, Pankaj Lamba, as the main suspect. Harshita's sister, Sonia Dabas, shared that Lamba had a history of domestic violence and had been arrested for it before. Despite this, he had somehow managed to find his way back into Harshita's life.
Harshita, who was originally from Delhi, India, had entered into an arranged marriage with Lamba earlier in the year. She had been working at a packing factory in Corby, Northamptonshire, but her sister revealed that Lamba would often beat her and deny her access to money. The situation had become so controlling that he even forbade her from working anymore. Harshita's family had urged her to resist his behavior, but she had initially kept the abuse a secret.
However, things came to a head on August 28 when Harshita finally confided in her sister and went to the police. Lamba was arrested, but was released on conditional bail with a domestic violence protection order in place. Despite this, Lamba managed to contact Harshita through a relative and pressure her to drop the charges. Fearing for her safety, Harshita went into hiding in a refuge.
But tragically, it seems Lamba was not done with his violent ways. Police suspect that he strangled Harshita on November 10 in Corby before driving her body to Ilford the next day. The Independent Office for Police Conduct is currently investigating the case, and an international manhunt is underway for Lamba. Harshita's grieving family believes that he has fled to India, which they describe as a "very safe place for him" where it is easy to go missing.
The family released a statement paying tribute to Harshita, expressing their love and loss. They will never forget her and she will always be in their hearts. Harshita's sister, Sonia, also shared that they miss her every moment of their lives. The senseless loss of a young life has left the community in shock, and the search for justice continues.
