The lawyer’s body was identified by his two elder brothers, who are labourers. They informed police that they are originally from Hapur. Both his brother’s stated that Kapil was good at studies, hence, he went to Delhi to prepare for IAS.
Later he met Mamta, who belonged to the Jatt (caste) community, while Kapil belonged to a backward caste, and thus her family was not ready for the couple’s marriage. Their brother’s deceased wife was selected for
the post of Sub Inspector and the deceased brother also commenced with his studies. The entire dispute and controversy started last year after Mamta died due to heart attack.
