Who Is Ziqra? Social Media-Savvy 'Lady Don' Linked To Delhi Teen's Murder

Ziqra has been arrested in connection with the teenager's murder.

Ziqra is frequently seen roaming around Seelampur with a pistol and had also waved the gun around during Holi celebrations. Videos of her with the gun led to a case against her under the Arms Act.

Here Are Five Points On The 'Lady Don':

  1. The woman has allegedly been romantically linked to notorious gangster Hashim Baba, who is behind bars and has been involved in several high-profile cases, including the murder of gym owner Nadir Shah in south Delhi's upscale Greater Kailash area last year. 

  2. Ziqra, whose profile photo is of a Palestinian flag, has over 15,300 followers on Instagram, where her handle is "sher_di_sherni_00" and her bio reads "lady don". Many of her recent posts show her dancing to various songs, sometimes even in the streets. 

  3. One of her posts, which appears to have been removed later, also showed her waving to the camera while the police arrested her in the Arms Act case. She was released from jail recently.

  4. Ziqra once worked for a gangster's wife and now allegedly leads her own gang with at least 10-15 people.

  5. The father of the teenager who was killed said Ziqra had threatened his son, Kunal, multiple times. "She has also been in jail, she used to roam around with a gun in her hand. She would say she will kill my son if she gets a chance," the man said.

    While some may argue that people in Delhi are now more aware of air pollution than they were a decade back, my rebuttal would be that awareness does not mean that people are concerned.

    On a good day, such as today, the AQI reading in Delhi is 407. We are jubilant at the sickly sunshine trickling through the slightly dissipated smog. At least its not 1600.

    हमारी हवा जहरीली हो रही है. गुरुवार की शाम को जब मैं इस मुद्दे पर लिखने बैठी तो AQI लगातार 400 पार  जाकर दम घोंट रहा था. बहुत लोगों को यह मामला बोरिंग लगे, लेकिन जब आप अपने साथ काम करने वालों को खांसते-हांफते देखते-सुनते हैं, तो चिंता होने लगती है. सुबह उठते ही दरवाजे खिड़कियां खोलने के लिए डॉक्टर मना कर रहे हैं. बड़े बुजुर्गों के लिए तो मॉर्निंग वॉक बाहर की दुनिया से सीधे संपर्क का ज़रिया है, लेकिन डॉक्टर इसकी भी मनाही कर रहे हैं.
