Nikki murder: Victim's diary to inform police charge sheet

Notes from the diary are part of a nearly 250-page charge sheet that the police is expected to file next week, officials aware of it said, detailing some key aspects of the indictment, including Yadav's detailing of specific incidents and of Gehlot's reluctance to marry her, which was the main motive for her murder.

"In the last few pages, she wrote about her sadness because Gehlot was not able to convince his parents about their relationship and wedding. She mentioned Gehlot telling her that 'he did not want his parents to die over a girl' and that he did not want to go against his family," said an officer, asking not to be named.
