Teen girl in India brutally stabbed on busy street by ex-boyfriend angered by break-up
A jilted Indian man’s fury over being rejected by his former girlfriend led him to stab then hit the helpless teenager to death with a slab of concrete, initial police investigations revealed, as the bystander effect played out on a bustling Delhi street.
His location was traced to the city of Bulandshahr, more than 130km away from the Shahbad Dairy crime scene, after he made a phone call to his father, allowing police to nab him. An initial post-mortem showed her skull was ruptured by a blunt object and that she was stabbed 16 times, the police said, while the final autopsy report has yet to be released.
Some stopped to watch without intervening or calling the authorities, seemingly afflicted by the bystander effect, the social psychological theory that individuals are less likely to offer help, with responsibility diffused when other people are present.
