A 25-year-old Indian tennis player was shot dead by her father at their residence in Gurugram on Thursday, according to Indian media reports.
Radhika Yadav, who had represented Haryana in several state-level tennis competitions and earned numerous accolades, was reportedly shot multiple times.
According to police, her father fired five rounds, three of which struck her, resulting in her death at the scene.
Initial investigations indicate that the accused was reportedly upset over Radhika’s frequent use of social media, particularly her activity on Instagram where she posted reels. Family members mentioned ongoing disputes between the two concerning her online presence and professional decisions.
Gurugram police arrested the suspect at the scene and recovered the firearm used in the crime. A detailed investigation is underway, including forensic analysis and statements from relatives and neighbors.
A senior police officer said, “We have taken the accused into custody and are conducting a thorough investigation. The motive appears to be related to personal differences over the victim’s social media activity, but all angles are being explored.”
Authorities are also reviewing CCTV footage from the surrounding area and have urged anyone with relevant information to come forward.
The police assured the public that the case would be investigated with transparency and urgency.
